Sure, I mean Keepnews' opinions on Bill Evans. In some parts it seems he's about to say something interesting and then it's edited. Great Video anyway, and thanks for sharing it.

OIC. He's a man who sometimes goes in different directions when he's talking, like a solo that's improvised, so I had to try and edit his clips in a way that would make sense and have some continuity.

Of course by "Bill Evans," you really mean to say Dave Brubeck.

People are fickle and so is fate. A lot of things go over the general public's head, but if you beat it into their head like a good Rock song does, the light bulb comes on and the public says I like "We Will Rock You" by Queen because they have been hearing the same music repeated for 10 minutes. LOL Poor Bill seemed very sensitive insecure and naive. He was a cocktail and intermission pianist at best that got thrust into the Jazz headlights and like a deer was hypnotized by the light and stuck.

Only one thing has to be understood.
Bill Evans was the most influential pianist in the history of jazz music.EVERYONE after Bill Evans was influenced by this man. This is not an opinion. It's an absolute fact.
