Who Put the Bomp was a rock music fanzine edited and published by Greg Shaw from 1970 to 1979.[1][2] Its name came from the 1961 hit doo-wop song "Who Put the Bomp (in the Bomp, Bomp, Bomp)" by Barry Mann. Later, the name was shortened to Bomp! Bomp!, and extended by Shaw to the record label Bomp! Records, which he headed until his death in 2004.[3][4]

Background

The magazine was a departure from the mainstream and its writing style unique with its own opinion described as almost partisan.[5] The magazine was first published in 1970. It was created by Greg Shaw and his wife. The magazine chronicled bands that Shaw deemed worthy of covering, which he did passionately.[6] Shaw made it known too that the magazine was not going to cater to nostalgia or be an info receptacle for fanatical collectors of obscure out of print records.[7]

A significant number of writers who wrote for the magazine went on to greater things.[6] Two journalists who had their careers launched via the magazine were Lester Bangs and Greil Marcus.[8]

Staff

Ken Barnes, who has written for the Best Classic Bands website, and other publications such as Fusion and Phonograph Record was once co-editor for the magazine.[9] Jay Kinney, who was a key man in the underground comics movement in the late 1960s, served as art director for the magazine.[8]

Greg Shaw

Shaw was one of the first and best-known rock fanzine editors. Active in science fiction fandom as a young man, he became familiar with fanzines. Shaw founded one of the earliest rock fanzines, the mimeographed Mojo Navigator and Rock 'n Roll News in 1966.
