William John "Bill" Evans (pronunciation: /ˈɛvəns/, August 16, 1929 – September 15, 1980) was an American jazz pianist and composer who mostly worked in a trio setting. Evans' use of impressionist harmony, inventive interpretation of traditional jazz repertoire, block chords, and trademark rhythmically independent, "singing" melodic lines continue to influence jazz pianists today.
Born in Plainfield, New Jersey, he was classically trained, and studied at Southeastern Louisiana University. In 1955, he moved to New York, where he worked with bandleader and theorist George Russell. In 1958, Evans joined Miles Davis's sextet, where he was to have a profound influence. In 1959, the band, then immersed in modal jazz, recorded Kind of Blue, the best-selling jazz album of all time.
In late 1959, Evans left the Miles Davis band and began his career as a leader with Scott LaFaro and Paul Motian, a group now regarded as a seminal modern jazz trio. In 1961, ten days after recording the highly acclaimed Sunday at the Village Vanguard and Waltz for Debby, LaFaro died in a car accident. After months of seclusion, Evans re-emerged with a new trio, featuring bassist Chuck Israels.
William Lawrence Evans (March 25, 1919 – November 30, 1983) was a relief pitcher in Major League Baseball who played for the Chicago White Sox (1949) and Boston Red Sox (1951). Listed at 6 ft 2 in (1.88 m), 180 lb., Evans batted and threw right-handed. He was born in Quanah, Texas.
In a two-season Major League career, Evans posted a 0–1 record with a 4.36 ERA in 13 appearances, including five games finished, four strikeouts, 16 walks, and 21⅔ innings pitched. In 12 seasons in minor league baseball, he worked in 386 games and compiled a 128–127 (.502) mark, retiring after the 1955 season.
Evans served in the US Army in World War II as an infantry man, eventually earning the Bronze Star Medal and Silver Stars.
Evans died in Grand Junction, Colorado, at age 64.
William D. "Bill" Evans (born February 9, 1958 in Clarendon Hills, Illinois) is an American jazz saxophonist. His father was a classical piano prodigy and until junior high school Evans studied classical clarinet. Early in his studies he was able to hear such artists as Sonny Stitt and Stan Getz live at the Jazz Showcase in Chicago. He attended Hinsdale Central High School and studied with tenor saxophonist Vince Micko. His stylistic influences are wide ranging and include players such as Sonny Rollins, Joe Henderson, John Coltrane, Stan Getz, Steve Grossman, and Dave Liebman. He has stated that although he never transcribed solos, he was able to get a very deep intuitive feel and understanding of each of these players' styles.
He plays primarily tenor and soprano saxophones. Evans attended University of North Texas and William Paterson University, where he studied with Dave Liebman, a Miles Davis alumnus. Moving to NYC in 1979 he spent countless hours in lofts playing jazz standards and perfecting his improvisational style. At the age of 22 he joined Miles Davis and was part of his musical comeback in the early to mid-1980s. Notable albums recorded with Miles include The Man With The Horn, We Want Miles, Star People, and Decoy. In addition he has played, toured and recorded with artists such as Herbie Hancock, John McLaughlin,Michael Franks, Willie Nelson, Mick Jagger, Les McCann, Mark Egan, Danny Gottlieb, Ian Anderson, Randy Brecker, The Allman Brothers Band, and Medeski, Martin, and Wood among others. He is featured on the Petite Blonde album with Victor Bailey, Dennis Chambers, Mitch Forman, and Chuck Loeb. Two of his most recent albums Soul Insider and Soulgrass were nominated for Grammy awards. Soulgrass was a ground breaking bluegrass/jazz fusion concept involving such musicians as Bela Fleck, Sam Bush, Bruce Hornsby, and drummer Vinnie Colaiuta.
Big Fun is a double album by American jazz recording artist Miles Davis, released April 19, 1974, on Columbia Records. It contains tracks recorded between 1969 and 1972 by Davis. Largely ignored on its original release, it was reissued on August 1, 2000 by Columbia and Legacy Records with additional material, which led to a belated critical reevaluation.
Big Fun presents music from three different phases of Miles Davis's early-seventies "electric" period.
Sides one and four ("Great Expectations/Orange Lady" and "Lonely Fire") were recorded three months after the Bitches Brew sessions and incorporate sitar, tambura, tabla, and other Indian instruments. They also mark the first time since the beginning of Miles Davis's electric period that he played his trumpet with the Harmon mute which had been one of his hallmarks, making it sound much like the sitar. This contributed to creating a very clear and lean sound, highlighting both the high and low registers, as opposed to the busier sound of Bitches Brew which placed more emphasis on the middle and low registers.
Paradise (named Big Fun in the US) is the debut album by Detroit-based electronic music duo Inner City, released in 1989. The album was a great success in the UK and in US clubs, and was one of the first house music albums to cross over to the mainstream charts, particularly in Europe. Group member Kevin Saunderson (along with Juan Atkins, who produced one track) is renowned as one of the originators the Detroit techno sound. Lead vocals on Paradise were performed by the group's other member, Paris Grey.
The album was retitled Big Fun for its US release, and the ballad "Power of Passion" was replaced with "Whatcha Gonna Do with My Lovin'" when that song became popular in the US. The original US pressing, however, contains the former.
A top-three success in the UK, Paradise spun off four top-twenty singles (three of which hit the UK top ten). The first four singles released from the album topped the US Hot Dance Club Play chart. A remix album featuring songs from Paradise was released in the UK later in 1989.
Big Fun were an English boy band who were active between 1988 and 1994. The band consisted of Phil Creswick, Mark Gillespie and Jason John (a.k.a. Jason Herbert). They were produced by Stock Aitken Waterman.
Before they were Big Fun, Creswick and John were in another regroup of Ian Levine's boy band Seventh Avenue with Mark Long. The other member of the group at that time was Steve Crawley who provided lead vocals for the group recording and singing live whilst performing in nightclubs all over the UK. Other original Big Fun members included Keith Davies from Stretford in Manchester. Davies then went on to star in Coronation Street before taking on an ambitious tour that covered nine countries.
Their only album, A Pocketful of Dreams (released in 1990), reached the Top 10 in the UK Albums Chart; and contained the hit singles "Blame It on the Boogie" (previously a hit for The Jacksons' in 1978), "Can't Shake the Feeling", and "Handful of Promises". "I Feel the Earth Move" was intended to be their first single (and promo copies were circulated) but it was decided their first single should be Blame It on the Boogie, Their final single "Stomp!" was issued in 1994, under the name 'Big Fun II' as Jason John had left the band, and although this failed to obtain the commercial heights of their earlier work, it reached the dance chart in the United States.
Bill Evans (born 1961 in Los Angeles, California) (AKA, Bass Man Bill Evans ) is an American bass guitarist who focuses on funk and rock. He currently resides in Las Vegas with his family and enjoys playing at his local church Canyon Ridge Christian Church.
At the age of fifteen Evans began playing the electric bass. He quickly moved from playing rock to funk and jazz. Evans is mainly a self-taught bassist, although he briefly studied with the bassists John Patitucci and Valda Hammick. He plays a custom Warwick fretted 4 string and fretless 5 string. He uses '"Bass Man Bill Evans"' as his career name to distinguish himself from the Jazz piano legend Bill Evans.
As a studio musician and performer, he has recorded and toured with Sony recording artist "Strongheart" with the guitarist/vocalist Wilbur Hess and drummer Bobby Arechiga. He also played and toured with Storm, James Burton and Jeff Burton with Dave Koz; and worked with the legendary team of Harry Vanda and George Young of Albert productions. He has paid his dues in many gigs throughout the world ranging from hard rock to funk/jazz.

Jack threw a party on a Saturday night
And everybody was coming along
Georgie Porgie, Pudding and Pie
Cows jumping over the moon
The owl and the pussy cat went to see
See what was going down
All the king's horses and all the king's men
Will never be together again
This is too much fun
Yo, ho, ho, ho
Big fun
Butcher, the baker, and the candlestick maker
Chasing the three blind mice
Sugar and Spice being not so nice
Humpty Dumpty all over the place
Little Bo Peep, fast asleep
Simple Simon was not impressed
Down came the spider and sat down beside her
She wiped the smile right off his face
This is too much fun
Yo, ho, ho, ho
Big fun
Jack B. Nimble, not so quick, Jack fell over the candlestick
Little Jack Horner passed out in the corner
Hey, Diddle Diddle, the cat played the fiddle
This is too much... fun
Are we having fun yet?
Yo, ho, ho, ho
