I use ABC notation to prepare music for my classes, and I'm amazed that
I've just reached number 700 in my collection. Of course, by now I'm
very fast, although inevitably mistakes creep in. What a
responsibility: in 50 years people will be playing that wrong A note in
sessions, and saying "But that's what Gatherer had!" Anyway, here's
number 700:
