The Ray Gelato Giants "Men from Uncle" 2000

...In 1994, Gelato sang on the soundtrack for the BBC Television drama No Bananas, whilst forming a new outfit, the Ray Gelato Giants. They steered a more traditional course, with a repertoire incorporating the music of Nat King Cole, Duke Ellington, Dean Martin, and Frank Sinatra...
...They performed successfully at venues including the Umbria Jazz Festival in Italy, the Montreal Jazz Festival, San Sebastian Jazz Festival, and toured both Italy and the United States. Their popularity in Italy saw them appear on Maurizio Costanzo's television programme, and also play at Ronnie Scott's Jazz Club, and the 100 Club when back in London. In 1998, their music for a worldwide television commercial for Levi's meant a wide exposure for their version of "Tu Vuò Fà L'Americano", which appeared on both the albums The Men from Uncle (1998), and Live in Italy (2000). In addition, Gelato played the saxophone in his cameo role in the film Enigma (2001)... to be continued - wiki
