Best Answer

He was the first musician to make phonetic noises when singing as if to imitate the sound of an instrument. (thereby suggesting that the human voice is an instrument) ... it goes something like "bum bum budi di dum de dum de doh duh bidi Dee ayyo womp bada da da da da dah..."

If you want to hear another great musician who borrowed this style... look up Ella Fitzgerald ... particularly the song "A Train"
