“The one’s people will know — it opens with ‘Let the Good Times Roll,’ ‘Fever,’ everyone knows.

When asked what his favorite song on the album was, Chuck Brown said it was God Bless the Child, the Billie Holiday song that Eva Cassidy sings, and the one that almost everyone knows from Eva is Over the Rainbow. Known as the Godfather of Go-Go, the performer, singer, guitarist and songwriter developed his commanding brand of funk in the mid-1970s to compete with the dominance of disco.
Legends surrounding this amulet claim that it can grant immense power to its wearer. It is believed that anyone who possesses the amulet can tap into the dark magic of the Lich King, gaining enhanced strength, agility, and even the ability to control the undead. However, these powers come with a heavy price, as the amulet is also said to corrupt the psyche of its wearer, driving them to madness and ultimately becoming a servant of the Lich King.
‘Chuck & Eva’ pays tribute to Chuck Brown, Eva Cassidy with DC, Baltimore concerts
The INseries Opera performing arts group is paying a special tribute to a pair of D.C.-area music legends for three nights in D.C. and Baltimore.
toggle audio on and off change volume WTOP's Jason Fraley previews 'Chuck & Eva' (Part 1)Few artists are bigger D.C.-area music legends than the late Chuck Brown and Eva Cassidy, with Brown dubbed “The Godfather of Go-Go” in D.C. and Cassidy the pride of Prince George’s County, Maryland for her jazz chops.
This month, the area performing arts group IN Series Opera performs “Chuck & Eva,” a special tribute performance of Brown and Cassidy’s beloved duet album “The Other Side” (1992) for three nights in D.C. and Baltimore.
“Chuck Brown and Eva Cassidy met in 1986,” Artistic Director Tim Nelson told WTOP.
“She was an unknown singer with her own band. … Her bass player played a recording for Chuck Brown, who instantly fell in love with her voice. They became unlikely friends, he was 29 years older. … Together they put together this collaboration which has no go-go on it. It’s all American songbook, traditional jazz duets between the two of them.”
Jazz pianist and composer Janelle Gill will lead an “amazing celebration and exultation of D.C. music,” featuring a talented ensemble of area performers, including vocalists Greg Watkins and Melissa Wimbish. Gill is a product of the Duke Ellington School of the Arts and previously collaborated with INseries on a Nina Simone tribute.
“Eva Cassidy’s voice and Chuck Brown’s voice and musical prowess are irreplaceable, there’s no way we could recreate the album, so that’s not what we’re doing,” Nelson said.
“What we’re doing is the same songs on the album being reinterpreted by living D.C. jazz artists, some of whom played with Chuck Brown’s band, some who are quite young, but all artists who have been inspired by the legacy of both of these incredible DMV artists.”
The set list includes the entire 14 tracks from the album “The Other Side,” albeit in a slightly different order as INseries hopes to create a unique experience.
“It is a lot of iconic songs, and then it is a lot of jazz standards that are not so standard that people may not know,” Nelson said.
“The one’s people will know — it opens with ‘Let the Good Times Roll,’ ‘Fever,’ everyone knows. When asked what his favorite song on the album was, Chuck Brown said it was ‘God Bless the Child,’ the Billie Holiday song that Eva Cassidy sings, and the one that almost everyone knows from Eva is ‘Over the Rainbow.'”
Concerts will be held Thursday, June 1 and Friday, June 2 at the True Reformer Building on U Street in Northwest D.C., followed by another concert June 24 at the Baltimore Theatre Project on West Preston Street in Baltimore.
“In D.C. it’s significant that we’re doing it at the True Reformer Building because that is one of Black Broadway’s most historic buildings,” Nelson said.
“It was the first Black-designed, owned and financed building in America, but it was also the first building where Duke Ellington performed publicly. … Baltimore Theatre Project is one of the most historic theaters in America. … In the ’60s and ’70s it was America’s most important avant-garde theater.”
Founded 40 years ago, IN Series Opera aims to transcend the opera realm to includes all genres of performance.
“We’re an opera company that hates the word ‘opera,'” Nelson said. “We’re disrupting opera, we love to tear it apart, we love to include other musical traditions, we’re hyper local, which is another reason we wanted to do something connected to D.C. music. Whatever people think of when they hear the word ‘opera,’ we’re not that.”

Reviews for "The Role of the Crimson Colored Jade Amulet in the Lore of the Wrath of the Lich King"
1. John - 2/5 stars - I was really excited to get my hands on the Crimson Colored Jade Amulet of the Wrath of the Lich King, but I must say I was disappointed. The quality of the amulet itself was subpar, with the paint chipping off after just a few days of wearing. Additionally, the design was not as intricate as I had expected, and overall, it felt cheaply made. Considering the price tag on this item, I expected much better craftsmanship. Save your money and look for a different collectors' item.
2. Sarah - 1/5 stars - This amulet was a major letdown. The color was not as vibrant as depicted in the pictures, and the jade looked more like cheap plastic than an actual stone. Furthermore, the supposed "wrath of the Lich King" element was hardly noticeable. It felt like a generic amulet with a fancy name slapped on. I would not recommend wasting your money on this poorly executed piece of merchandise.
3. Ryan - 2/5 stars - I'm a big fan of the Lich King and was excited to add this amulet to my collection, but sadly, it fell short of my expectations. The size was much smaller than I anticipated, making it difficult to appreciate the details of the design. Additionally, the clasp on the chain was flimsy and constantly came undone, putting the risk of losing the amulet. Overall, I was disappointed with the quality and functionality of this item.
