Amy, Brian, Jon, and Bob, I've posted a new story on my MySpace page. I document how the rock group ABBA extensively used the 1-2m-3m-4-5-6m Chord System for the vast majority of their song production work
As a fellow songwriter you will find my documentation accurate, educational, and helpful.
If you have any questions, observations, or comments feel free to post them to my page. :)
