Best Band Logos: No. 8

Jerry Garcia and Co. had the legendary "Steal Your Face" symbol painted on all their gear so that, during festival shows, fellow hippies wouldn't accidentally swipe their guitars.

America's best beloved...period. They may not have been the the best at what they did, but they were the only ones who did what they did.
Head to Head they could out play anyone because they could play any type of music. First band to use two drummers, worked "Unplugged" DURING shows years before it became "fashionable" had more guest musicians playing with the group during shows. As always, NO CONCERT HAD THE SAME SONGLIST!!! They played more shows, did more benefits than any group. Why? because they loved to play music
Most important, from day one they encouraged fans to tape the shows, as long as they shared and didn't sell,when the last note was played, they were done with it
The logo? Hell it's still the most recognized in the world.

The "Dead Head" with the LSD lightning bolt in the brain is the most recognizable band logo of the 70's, 80's and 90's. As soon as you see it you immediately think, The Grateful Dead, no ifs, no ands and no buts.

I personally can't stand the Greatful Dead... but I can't argue the pure originality of the logo. (And notice fans from the previous "skull" logo, at least they DID SOMETHING to make this skull stand alone.)
