Bill once told me that The first time he heard Bix was when they were 
playing for a fraternity dance.  Bix was at one end of the hall and whomever 
Bill was playing with, was at the other end.

Bill told me that after hearing Bix, it caused him to change his whole stile 
of playing.

I wish I would have talked to him further about his comment as he did not 
sound like Bix, nor phrase like Bix in any way, shape or form . . . . That 
of course is only my opinion.
