There's something beautifully friendly and elevating about a bunch of guys playing music together. This wonderful little world that is unassailable. It's really teamwork, one guy supporting the others, and it's all for one purpose, and there's no flies in the ointment, for a while. And nobody conducting, it's all up to you. It's really jazz__that's the big secret. Rock and roll ain't nothing but jazz with a hard backbeat.Keith Richards
About This Quote
Here is a quote from a man who understands teamwork and teamwork is an important part of the band. The power of teamwork in a band is something that has been overlooked by many people. When you have a group of people that work well together, each person is able to achieve the best that they can. It allows for continuous creativity and pushes them to higher levels.
In the same way, playing music with a band is similar to performing with a team. There is no conductor, you are all working together and pushing each other to new heights.
