Jake Flack of The Rhodes Tavern Troubadours makes an airtight case for proving that the Nation’s Capital truly is the Telecaster town – and he’s not afraid to name names:
“DC’s The Telecaster Town“
The Rhodes Tavern Troubadours (2002)
*
Danny Gatton & Evan Johns flying blind
Roy Buchanan
Bill Kirchen
Dave Chappell
Jake Flack
Chick Hall, Jr.
From 2002’s most excellent (and transit-inspired) album, On the Red Line, recorded in Rockville, Maryland at Hit & Run, with Dave Chappell and Jake Flack on guitars & vocals, Mark Noone on bass & vocals, and Jack O’Dell on drums & vocals — with special guest, Bill Kirchen, on Telecaster.
As (Co-Producer) Ken Avis points out in his comment below, this song “name checks so many musicians who feature in a new film we are releasing in September [2020]” Anacostia Delta – a legendary concert celebrating DC’s legendary guitarists [Check out = Anacostia Delta – The Legacy of DC’s TeleMasters].

You forgot Roy Clark. He came from DC too!
I just came across your blog via this DC is a Telecaster Town article. What a great song! It name checks so many musicians who feature in a new film we are releasing in September. I thought you might be interested in it and might give it a mention. Check out the info and trailer at http://www.AnacostiaDelta.com
Thanks for a great blog…I could get lost in this for months!
