This song is a tribute to my friend - songwriter Ben Bullington. Ben was a doctor in small towns in Montana and when he got a pancreatic cancer diagnosis, he stopped practicing medicine and hit the road to play his music. Before he got too sick to play music, he would often pull out his banjo and Black Eyed Susie was one of his favorites. Keep listening after this track and you'll hear Ben's voice on a radio promo. Ben died at our home in Livingston in 2013.
