Hampton Hawes

Hi,

Can someone tell me how to properly pronounce Hampton's last name?

is it Haze or Haaz or ???

thanks!

I bet Hampton Hawes could tell you.
Myself, I'd guess *hawz* like *hogs* w/o the g.
How in the world would you get *Hays* from that?

It's pause for the cause with Hampton Hawes...

that would be difficult...he died in 1977.

I guess I'm guilty of asking a dumb question?
