AboutBaltimora was an Italian dance project featuring Jimmy McShane, (1957 - 1995) Northern Irish dancer and singer.The single "Tarzan Boy" was released in the summer of 1985. Baltimora's first album, Living In The Background, was released in Europe at the end of 1985 and arrived in U.S. some time later. Even though the album contained only six tracks, the enormous success of Tarzan Boy drove their record company to release of three more singles: Living in the Background, Woody Boogie, and Chinese Restaurant. Baltimora attempted a comeback in 1987 with a second album of eight tracks titled Survivor in Love, but the single Key Key Karimba was the only track to break into the top 20 in any countries. The single Tarzan Boy bounced back into the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the spring of 1993 as a remix, climbing to #51 thanks to its appearance in the movie Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III. The instrumental to Tarzan Boy was even used as a backdrop for a Listerine commercial around this time as well. McShane died in 1995, on March 28 or 29, as a result of AIDS. Source: Wiki |
