Steve Perry – Most Famous Mullets

No one rocked the mullet with such style as Journey singer Steve Perry in the late ’70s and ’80s. As the band’s most recognizable member, Perry’s hairstyle adapted with the times.

In the ’70s, it was long and wieldy with his hair flying everywhere and unveiling his sideburns as he sang ‘Any Way You Want It’ (perhaps about his hairstyle). But as the ’80s began, Perry began to shape his “ape drape” to at least shoulder length and it would continue to shorten as the years wore on until eventually he and the mullet went their “separate ways.” Noooooo!

Perry's good natured bonhomie & the world’s most charmin smile,knocked fans off their feet. Sportin a black tux,gigs came alive as he swished around the stage thrillin audiences w/ charisma that instantly burnt the oxygen right out of the venue.TR.com

I agree. A mullet isn't long on the sides like that. Just in the back. Like this....

Nobody rocked a mullet better than Billy Ray Cyrus.
I like to sit out on the front porch, where the birds can see me, eating a plate of scrambled eggs, just so they know what I'm capable of.

Journey never had proper mullets, the closest they got was during the ROR era.

Yeah, these were what I call high class mullets, even though nowadays that might be an oxymoron, lol!

If your considering both of the cyrus pictures to be mullets, then Perry wore a mullet during the frontiers era

His haircut was still considered a layered cut. Trust me the Mullet has a distinction of its own.
