Chuck Brown, the legendary Godfather of Go-Go from Washington, DC is known for hits like “Busting Loose” and “I Need Some Money.”  You’ll have a chance to see him perform live here in Baltimore this Saturday at 3pm on the Highway to Nowhere, at the intersection of Franklin and Gilmor Streets in West Baltimore, as part of ROOTS Fest 2011.  We sat down to discuss his legacy, a musical career spanning six decades, and what’s in store for visitors to the festival this weekend.
