When Jon Sebastian wrote 'Nashville Cats', he used the number 1352 as the number of guitar players in Nashville purely at random, because it fitted the rest of the verse. Years later, he checked union membership, records of session men hired by studios and anything else he could find, and discovered that in the year he wrote the song, there were near enough 1,352 guitar pickers in Nashville.


Spooky, eh?
