Who Put The Bomp was a rock music fanzine edited and published by Greg Shaw from 1970 to 1979. Its name came from the hit 1961 doo-wop song by Barry Mann, "Who Put the Bomp". Later, the name was shortened to Bomp!
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. Bomp! was an early publishing venue for many subsequently well-known writers, including Lester Bangs and Greil Marcus.
Bomp! later morphed into an independent record label, Bomp! Records, headed by Shaw until his death in 2004.
