Best known as a song writer with wife Cynthia Weil, Barry Mann’s novelty hit, “Who Put the Bomp (in the bomp de bomp de bomp),” could be about himself or any of the other tune-smiths at the famous Brill Building in New York City who churned out hit after hit in the 60’s. Released on ABC-Paramount in 1962, the 45 can fetch $25.00 today. A 1962 mono copy of the album is worth up to $150.00, a stereo copy up to $600.00.
