Bomp! is the definitive survey of the wildly innovative magazine of rock & roll commentary and criticism that was published from 1966-1978. Before Spin and Rolling Stone, there was Bomp!

Bomp! was both the brainchild, and the unorthodox corporate logo of rock & roll rebel legend Greg Shaw. His major legacy was the two magazines Bomp! (Who Put The Bomp) and its predecessor Mojo Navigator, both wild treasure troves of writing and graphics that gave birth to the modern rock press -- and Bomp! records, the first and the last of the true independent labels. Shaw and a team of now legendary writers - Lester Bangs, Greil Marcus, Ken Barnes, and even Iggy Pop - not only tell the story of rock'n'roll from the ground up but also give a vivid insight into the actual dawn of modern rock writing.

This first ever collection includes lavish, full-color, facsimile pages from ultra-rare magazines thought to be lost to the world, chronicling the furious progress of outlaw music as it happened.

Illustrated with personal correspondence, photos, in-depth interviews and major features on :
- The Grateful Dead
- The Doors' first ever fanzine interview
- The Ramones
- Janis Joplin and Big Brother & The Holding Company
- Blondie
- Brian Wilson
- The Troggs
- The Standells
- The Runaways
- Sky Saxon
- Country Joe & The Fish
- The Birth of Surf

Plus rare and never-before-seen photos of Iggy, Blondie, Stiv Bators, Weirdos, Germs, and many more, record and concert reviews (from Elvis Presley to the Sex Pistols), as well as contributions from Lenny Kaye, Mike Stax, Brendan Mullen, Peter Case, and others.
