This is an interesting topic. For the most part, I would say the mustache definitely enhances Gord's already attractive features and I prefer him with it. I definitely think that he looks much better now with it. I was so glad to see that he grew it back.
I also found his rugged mustache and beard look from the seventies a most sexy one.
There is one instance Ive seen him where I think he's even better looking without any facial hair. There is a video of him from the late sixties or very early seventies where he performs on the Johnny Cash show.I tell you, its not exaggeration to say that Gordon looked exquisite on that show. He's clean shaven, his skin is flawless, his hair looked like a downy blond halo, his lips were dark and sensuously bow shaped and he wore a confident, serious expression as he sang. So as I said, for the most part I prefer the mustache through the years, I'd have to say that the look he had on that show was probably my favorite of all the ones I've seen of him.
Its funny, this reminds me of a thread that I started in the newsgroup a few years back. Which Gord look to you prefer?
I always found it interesting that an artist such as Gord, who always seemed to concentrate on the music and leave the theatrics and costumes to other performers, still managed to be almost chameleon like in the way his appearence would alter so dramatically over the years
