That's how I'm always going to remember him as. The very first time that I heard of him: when he played the Duke in Escape from New York.
Hayes also wrote and performed the theme song from Shaft. And of course he was Chef on South Park, before that very odd dispute with the producers.
Adding him to the list of people for whom to keep their families in our thoughts and prayers.
EDIT 3:49 p.m. EST: Here's the first real news story that I've found about Hayes's death.

I went to one of his concerts in the Seventies.
He will always be remembered as the voice of SHAFT...right on!
Ol' you-know-who
