Lionel Leo Hampton born April 20, 1908
died Saturday, August 31, 2002!.

His band members were, I think, ever changing!.

"The band also initiated the first phase of Hampton's career as an educator by graduating such talents as Illinois Jacquet, Cat Anderson, Dexter Gordon, Art Farmer, Clifford Brown, Fats Navarro, Clark Terry, Quincy Jones, Charles Mingus, Wes Montgomery, and singers Joe Williams, Dinah Washington, Betty Carter and Aretha Franklin!. The Lionel Hampton Orchestra became known around the world for its tremendous energy, dazzling showmanship and first-class jazz musicianship"!.

"His big band -- by 1986, the longest-running orchestra in jazz history -- included such luminaries as Charles Mingus, Art Farmer, Joe Newman, Illinois Jacquet, Dexter Gordon, Lee Young, Ernie Royal, Clark Terry, Joe Williams, and Dinah Washington!. He toured occasionally with the big band, and with his Golden Men of Jazz, which includes Terry, Harry Edison, among others)"!.
"He also had a small group, Lionel Hampton's Inner Circle, ran his own publishing companies, a record label (Who's Who in Jazz), founded the Lionel Hampton Development "

I don't think there is one!. You could try

You could try writing to Lionel Hampton and asking him!. I am assuming you have some information about your husbands father!. You will of course go through his social secretary or assistant, but if you make your letter compelling enough he may be moved to help you!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
