  Yes, Blackbird is certainly the most-posted song of BeatlesFest. This is the 7th version. Although, yours is the first posted for BeatlesFest. All of the rest were posted before the festival started. And yours is quite unique with its brilliant instrumental arrangement.

What instruments did you play in this? One of them sounds almost like a plucked violin at times, then a mandolin or uke, then an acoustic guitar. I can't quite decide what it is.

Well done, Farmjazz!

WOW indeed !!!!

This is just stunning !!!!

This fest just keeps getting better all the time !!!

Er, thanks fellas.

I played the main guitar part twice, then separated them in the stereo field. Then I added the main (higher) guitar melody and put it in the center. Then I added the mandolin part for color, panned it R16, then added the lower pitched guitar melody to beef it up some, and panned it L20 or something like that. Mastered with the Live Mix effect, and that's it!

It started to rain towards the end of the lower guitar take, and I just left it in.

This truely is a great rendition of this classic well executed and nice flavor
i remember when i messed around with a guitar before keyboard a yamaha
acoustic my guitar teacher was teaching me this. a very tricky and difficult
song to play re chord changes and tempo and feel well done tc NEIL ..

Jaw-droppingly amazing. It's hard to take something so familiar and give it a fresh twist, but you've added a special new flavour that really works - on both a musical and emotional level. Absolutely beautiful.

Refreshingly fantastic version of this song, and there is some guitar playing of the highest quality all over this!
