Number 96: Baltimora - Tarzan Boy

I'm just going to point out that this video for "Tarzan Boy", Jimmy McShane's (a.k.a. Baltimora's) biggest hit, looks disturbingly like a web page with embedded video - something that wouldn't exist for another 10 years after the video's 1984 release. Could Mr. McShane have been some time-traveling future boy? Who knows. In any case, "Tarzan Boy" takes spot #96 on my list.

Also...this (lip-synced) performance on American Bandstand is one for the ages.

  1. What a great tune.... In the American Bandstand vid he looks like the offspring of Boy George and a rabbi who was really into Bananarama
