I got a question for you folks... please read carefully!

I'd like to know the following:

a) who put the "bop" in the "bop-shoo-bop-shoo-bop"?

and furthermore:

b) who put the "ram" in the "ram-a-lam-a-ding dong?

Your contributions would be appreciated...

That's a damn good theory, but I think they had already been placed there prior to ON-J and JT's efforts. I think they returned the "bop" and the "ram" to their respective places of residence, yet they were not the original "putters", if you will.
let me come over it's a beautiful day to play with you in the dark

I don't know who put the Bop in the "bop-shoo-bop-shoo-bop" but Gene Vincent put it in the "bebopalula"
