This is a slack-key guitar instrumental cover of "Blackbird" from the Beatles' 10th album "The Beatles" released in 1968, commonly called "The White Album" because of its white jacket. It is very rare to hear this song covered as an instrumental.

Without sticking to the beat of the original song, two slack-key guitars loosely intertwine with each other, sometimes with a touch of blues, creating a gentle arrangement and playing by IMEHA. The sound of the slack-key
guitar strings will make you feel relaxed.
