About this Quote

This quote by John McLaughlin talks to the importance of the method which something is done, instead of the thing itself. He is suggesting that even if someone is the greatest player of an instrument, if they are not performing in such a way that is interesting and entertaining, then the audience will not be interested. This is an important suggestion that it is not simply the ability or skill that matters, however also the method which it exists. It is the combination of the two that will make an efficiency truly unforgettable. McLaughlin is likewise suggesting that in the end, this is all that we have - the way in which something is done. For that reason, it is necessary to concentrate on the quality of the performance, rather than simply the skill or skill.
