Frankie Avalon and Annete Funicello
There are quite a few actually, but one you shouldn't miss is Frankie Avalon. That's right - "Moondoggie" from the "Beach" movies of the 60's with Annette Funicello. He was actually a trumpet player first, and worked with some big names before being discovered as a singer, and then an actor. You can actually see and hear a sample of him performing in Irwin Allen's movie "Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea". He's actually playing the horn in a scene in which he's accompanying Barbara Eden's butt shaking on the screen while she dances to the music - go see it!
