I just did a google and found them.

Bobby Jameson made a single by the title "Gotta find my roogalator" in June 1966, 3 months AFTER Jimmy Smith's "Got my mojo working" came out!

Personnel was quite interesting

Gotta Find My Roogalator (R. P. Jameson) 2:30

H & R Studios, LA

June 21, 1966

Produced by Norm Ratner

Arranged by FZ

Bobby Jameson--vocals

Louis Morell--guitar

Robert West--guitar, bass

Carol Kaye--guitar

Lawrence Knechtel--piano

Gene Estes--drums, tympani

John Guerin--drums

It was issued on Penthouse 503

Jackie Mittoo and the Soul Brothers did a recording of Smith's arrangement but called it (and sang it) "Got my boogaloo working". This was probably in 1966/67 - the Soul Brothers were replaced by the Soul Vendors in 1967.

I think Jimmy Smith invented it.

And hell, you bleedin' well KNOW what it is!

If you have to ask, you'll never know...

[Big Al]

Always thought that was the horn section that played for Styx. You know? In the song "Why Me?" Where DeYoung sez "Roogalator?" Remember? Anyone? Skid????
