...grade-school cook who dished out mediocre food and ageless wisdom on the Comedy Central animated show South Park. The show's creators, Trey Parker and Matt Stone, conceived the role for Barry White, another soul basso whose music soothed where Hayes' prowled and pounced. But Hayes did splendid work (his lines usually taped by phone from New York) for the first nine seasons, in which Chef was virtually the only adult character treated with affectionate respect. Parker and Stone also gave Hayes his last hit single: a ribald novelty tune, Chocolate Salty Balls, that went...
