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.
"What Kind of Fool (Heard All That Before)" is a song performed by Australian recording artist and songwriter Kylie Minogue, from her greatest hits album Greatest Hits (1992). The song was written by Mike Stock, Kylie Minogue and Pete Waterman, and produced by Stock and Waterman.
It was Minogue's last original single to be released from the record label PWL, as although "Celebration" was released as the last single, it was a cover version, not an original single. The single was released on 10 August 1992 as a CD single and had received positive reception from music critics, many praising it as a good last single from PWL. The song peaked at number seventeen and fourteen in Australia and the United Kingdom, respectively.
The song was taken from Minogue's first compilation album Greatest Hits as the first single and last original single to be released by her label PWL, but her second single from the album, "Celebration", was taken as the last single. The song was written by Stock and Waterman, as well as Minogue contributing in the lyrics and was produced by Stock and Waterman.
"What Kind of Fool" is the title of a vocal duet from 1981 (see 1981 in music) by singers Barbra Streisand and Barry Gibb. The song was written by Gibb and Albhy Galuten.
The songs on the Guilty album were a collaboration between Streisand and all the members of the Bee Gees, including Barry's brothers, Robin and Maurice Gibb. But Barry Gibb played the largest role of the brothers on the album, co-writing and co-producing most of the tracks and appearing on the album cover embracing Streisand. Co-producer Karl Richardson was quoted describing Barry Gibb's contribution to this song: "He did the demo first. Barbra sang to the demo, then he came back and replaced a couple of things after he had heard what she was doing."
Released as the third single from Streisand's 1980 album Guilty, "What Kind of Fool" was the third consecutive top ten single from the album in the United States. "Woman in Love" reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, and the album's title track (also a duet between the two singers) reached number three, both in late 1980. "What Kind of Fool" spent three weeks at number ten on the Hot 100 in March and April 1981. It also spent four weeks atop the Billboard adult contemporary chart.
What Kind of Fool is a 1981 vocal duet between Barbra Streisand and Barry Gibb.

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.

Bill Evans: piano
'What Kind of Fool Am I' - jazz piano tutorial. I suppose the definitive version was Bill Evans - I especially remember the solo version on the 'Alone' CD. This is in two keys - Eb and C, and 2 styles - rubato, and with a simulated trio. I have added quite a few extra passing chords in the rubato solo piano first chorus - I imagine that this is why so many jazz pianists and guitarists have played this song, as it lends itself to so many alternative harmonies. The song was improvised in real time from a basic leadsheet. Quite a few people think that I am reading the transcription - that came later after recording the video. It is derived from the midi file that was recorded while filming. While it is not 100% accurate, it enables me to complete these transcriptions much quicker than I woul...
Take 2 ( The Solo Sessions Vol.2 ) inspired by the introduction of Take1 ━ Transcribed by W. Hughes
A beautiful piece.. Learned it many, many months ago; wanted to have it recorded before I forgot it. Hope you enjoy :) Follow me on instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nicolas.scott/ #piano #jazz #billevans #music
First, I have two different soundtracks of this performance on my website www.7notemode.com Both are available for download. The soundtrack on this video is the Galaxy Vintage D piano. I also have a rendering of the same midi file using Ivory II Steinway digital piano. It makes for an interesting comparison -- kind of a real world example of how these digital pianos can be used with various plug in's to give them a specific character. I tried to give the VinD a sound similar to Bill Evans piano, which is a vintage sound -- very mid-rangy and lively. The VinD takes to that sound really well. The Ivory is a more classical sound with the mic's more distant with more hall sound. The piece follows a Bill Evans style without a lot of note copying. I enjoy playing this piece. I hope yo...
"What Kind of Fool Am I?" is a popular song written by Leslie Bricusse and Anthony Newley and published in 1962. It was introduced by Anthony Newley in the musical Stop The World - I Want To Get Off. It comes at the end of Act Two to close the show.[1][2] Bricusse and Newley received the 1961 Ivor Novello award for Best Song Musically and Lyrically,[3] At the 1963 Grammy Awards, it won the award for Song of the Year and was the first by Britons to do so. Bill Evans recorded the song for his album Alone (Again) in December 1975, not released until 1977.

What kind of fool am I
Who never fall in love
It seems that I'm the only one
That I have been thinking of
What kind of mind is this
An empty Shell,
A lonely cell,
In which, an empty heart must dwell
What kind of clown am I?
What do I know of life?
Why can't I cast away this mask of clay
And live my life
Why can't I fall in love
Like any other girl
And maybe the I'll know
What kind of fool I am?
What kind of lips are these?
That lie with every kiss
That whisper empty words of love
That left me alone like this
Why can't I fall in love
Like any other girl
And maybe then I'll know
