Guess Who I Met Today! is the amazing story of musician Danny Davis, leader of The Nashville Brass and a Nashville music institution. During an incredible career that spanned over 50 years, Davis was involved in nearly every aspect of the music biz: Davis played his trumpet during the Big Band era with folks like Gene Krupa, performed in Broadway musicals, served as an executive with the MGM and RCA record labels, produced chart-topping albums by artists like Connie Francis, Waylon Jennings and Hank Jr., and led one of the world's most popular performing groups in The Nashville Brass. Guess Who I Met Today! tells the Danny Davis story through a series of interesting, humorous and entertaining personal recollections of the musician's meetings and relationships with memorable people like Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash, Dolly Parton, Tiger Woods, Ed Sullivan, Ted Williams, Nina Simone, Barbara Streisand, Jack Benny, President Richard Nixon and many others!
