The U.S. single (EMI/Manhattan B50018) does say "Recorded in Italy" on it. Copyright "Italiana S.p.A." That should have been a good clue who was pulling the strings.
As for the name, I have no idea. For all we know, it could have been two of Bassi's relatives' and/or friends' surnames stuck together.

Jimmy McShane was just some dorky guy dancing in the video. He is NOT the singer, as far as I know at least
The singer was Italian guy....same guy who wrote and produced songs for Baltimora. His name was Maurizio Bassi....maybe he's the one who died, I don't know?

I love song "Chinese Restaurant" by this act....very romantic 80's synth tune. Check it out if you get a chance..... it's very new wave sounding. But of course "Tarzan boy" is an all time classic of italo disco [:)]
I love Italo music so much...great topic! [8D]
