Nashville Pickers
“Nashville Cats” and other fans of John Sebastian and the Lovin’ Spoonful know “there’s thirteen-hundred fifty-two guitar pickers in Nashville.” That number has grown, of course, in the 45 years since that song was a hit.
But there’s another breed of picker – junk pickers – whose ranks also continue to swell in this city filled with antique parlors and where a flea market plays a major role in the debate over the fate of the old fairgrounds.
On Sidco Drive in South Nashville, brothers-in-law Steve Clark and Joe Rhoton are partners in a venture that merges both types of pickers.
Collectibles and tunes mingle inside a storefront that includes everything from remnants of the late Conway Twitty’s “Twitty City” tourist trap to a stuffed semblance of Mr. T to an apron autographed by Eddy Arnold and Chet Atkins back in 1985.
Nashville Pickers, which opened Memorial Day, is a place where Clark – the picker and scribbler behind such hits as George Strait’s You Can’t Make a Heart Love Somebody – can show off the musical skills that have earned him a living, have his friends over for songwriter nights and at the same time sell items from the treasure trove he’s accumulated in his antique and collectibles picking adventures.
Filled with antiques and whatchamacallits of all flavors, this is a picking parlor in both senses of the word.
“We just want it to be a place where people can hang out,” says Rhoton, 48, a Westmoreland cattle farmer and Lawrenceburg movie theater owner in addition to being a Nashville Picker.
He motions toward the worn chairs – a faded red wingback and mismatched dining room chairs plopped just inside the storefront. “They (musical pickers) can play right here or go in the back, where we have a small room.”
To find that small backroom, simply take a left at the 8½-foot-tall fiberglass black bear.
And if the pickers and grinners like their perches, well, they can buy them and take them home. Rhoton and Clark will just bring in some more chairs from their stockpile or go out and pick for more.
And while listening to the musical picking, folks can wander through the confines, prospecting through the colorful clutter for items ranging in price from a quarter to a couple thousand bucks. “Everything’s negotiable,” Clark says.

“The Lion of Judah”- movie review- This Christian movie is centered around a group of animals that live in the stable where Jesus was born. These animals were present when Jesus was born and meet Him (the King) and the movie is set 33 years later around the time when Jesus will die on the Cross.
……This movie is PACKED with lessons on respect, trust, honor and truth. However, the main point is to teach children about Christ’s love for them and His death on the cross. Children and parents alike will walk away from this movie having learned something.
