J.P. Richardson.
Jiles Perry Richardson (aka The Big Bopper) was born in Texas, and he became a noted rock 'n roll deejay. Richardson was also a prolific songwriter whose work provided hits for such country artists as George Jones and Johnny Preston. In 1958, The Big Bopper scored his biggest hit with the rock 'n roll classic song "Chantilly Lace." This song rose to number six on the U.S. Billboard charts. Richardson's signature line in this tune was, "You knoooooooow what I like!"
