Two years later there was another live at Montreux "Blues a la Suisse" with Hampton Hawes, Bob Cranshaw and Kenny Clarke. Acoustic purists critizized it because Hampton Hawes playes Electric piano, but IMHO it sound´s good and groovy, same as the Gene Ammons Album from the same date with Dexter and Cannonball sittin in, with the same Rhythm section.

Bob Cranshaw`s E-Bass (for me) a showstopper .... Quote

As much as I know Hampton Hawes died in 1977 at 49 years only. I heard some Hampton Hawes on Electric piano from around 1973 also. I know there are a lot of acoustic purists, but he sounds good on the Electric too. I think, withouth that huge afro he looked better. On photos from the 60´s he really Looks smart. Like on "Green Leaves of the Summer" Quote
