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.

The Alternative (Arabic: البديل al-badeel) was an electoral alliance of several socialist Palestinian groups:
In the January 2006 PLC elections it came fourth with 2.92% of the popular vote. It had two deputies elected: Qais Abd al-Karim and Bassam as-Salhi. Its best vote was in the Bethlehem Governorate, and its next best was in the Ramallah and al-Bireh Governorate.
The alliance was dissolved in early 2007.
The Alternative (Danish: Alternativet) is a green political party in Denmark. The party was publicly launched on 27 November 2013 by former Minister of Culture Uffe Elbæk and Josephine Fock, both of whom had been Members of Parliament for the Social Liberal Party.
On 17 September 2013, Uffe Elbæk announced that he had left the Social Liberal Party. During this time, Elbæk prepared for founding a new party. Two months later, The Alternative was publicly launched by Uffe Elbæk and Josephine Fock at a press conference at Christiansborg Palace, the seat of the Danish Parliament, Folketinget.
The party’s name was approved by the Danish Electoral Commission under the Ministry of Economy and the Interior, taking effect on 18 December 2013. In the beginning of 2015 the party worked on gathering the 20,260 signatures required to run for Parliament, which it succeeded in doing on 23 February 2015. The party aims to crowdsource policies through what it calls "political laboratories".
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.

Walk me out by the water's edge
Oh, my brother
I'm coming down
We are you
We are almost there
And the man keeps coming 'round
I don't know who was right
Or what they saw in you that night
But here we are under moonlight
Words...cannot describe
Walk me out in the morning sun
Oh, sweet momma
I'm coming down
We are young
We are almost there
And the man keeps coming 'round
And I don't know who was right
Or what they saw in you that night
Here we are under moonlight
Words cannot describe
It's clear to me
You're like
The oceans and the light
Try and you'll remember what you used to be
It's clear to me this day will take you for a ride
A place that you once longed to be
And there it is...
I don't know who was right
Or what they saw in you that night
Here we are under the moonlight
Words...cannot describe
Walk me out
By the water's edge
Oh, my brother
I'm coming down
We were young
We are almost there
And the man keeps coming 'round
