[shakeyboff]

How can Richi valens have done it first, when Trini Lopez Wrote it? Look at the Credits on the Single!!

[hamarutax]

Twist and shout ???????

[CumbiaCowboy]

The song was not written by either Ritchie Valens or Trini Lopez, La Bamba is a traditional Mexican folk song written long ago by an unknown author & was a dance from the Mexican colonial period. However give credit to Valens whose musical arrangement & recording of the song in 1958 made La Bamba into a Rock & Roll hit. Lopez recorded his version of the song in 1966.

Trini Lopez first played La Bamba well before Ritchie Valens, in 1956 in the Dallas nightclub where he worked, accompanied by top Latin musicians, e.g. drummer/percussionist Juma Santos who famously played with Astrid Gilberto and Chet Baker on "Girl from Ipanema". Trini Lopez is a brilliant live player, for me still the best in this genre.

[MrUnstopable07]

I Can only Remember the Lyrics of this song when i'm Drunk..

[drummaz14]

[Mary200692]

love ittt!!!! :D

[xrayspexyes]

haha the guy clapping off beat... that was funny

[TheLarryBrown]

@xrayspexyes : He wasn't off the beat. He was on the "offbeat." Hip music lovers & musicians think that people should clap on the offbeat and that people that clap on the downbeat lack knowledge and soul. The downbeat is 1 & 3, the offbeat is 2 & 4. So really the guy that you think is funny is showing more soul than the guy next to him.

[arrowz12]

The brunette girl sitting in the front row on the right looks absolutely miserable. Someone should have given her a slap!

[ahcariel]

Yeaaaah...Mira, mira mi sobera? mira no, no, no – sha la la la, sha la, la, la, la... Everybody, here we go! Ah, ah, ah….Para bailar bailar la bamba – para bailar bailar la bamba se necesita una poca de gracia – una poca de gracia y otra cosita – y arriba y arriba – arriba y arriba y arriba iré - por ti seré por ti seré – one more time! Bamba, bamba... Uuuuh! Que mira, mira cómo baila mira no, no, no – Uuuuh! Yeah! One more time! Para bailar bailar la bamba... (repeat).

[ahcariel]

This is how he sings it:

Mmm... para bailar la bamba - para bailar la bamba se necesita una poca de gracia – una poca de gracia y otra cosita – y arriba y arriba – arriba y arriba y arriba iré – por ti seré por ti seré – Everybody! Bamba, bamba... Yo no soy marinero – yo no soy marinero soy capitán, soy capitán soy capitán (everybody) Bamba, bamba..

[ahcariel]

We must take into account that to many hispanos living in the States english becomes their first language. It’s only natural. It happens also in England with the kids of the spaniards and the latin americans. However, Trini’s accent is not bad and he sounds really well. For those who are interested I’d write the words in spanish in a following text.

[iMs0pHr3sH1]

who wrote this song trini lopez or ritchie vallens? i think ritchies is better.

PLEASE RESPOND sum 111

[wjhmosaenglish03]

@iMs0pHr3sH1

This song is an traditional. Ritchie made it famous but didn't wrote it, Trini recorded it after Ritchie.

[iLoveYoutuveVideos]

@wjhmosaenglish03

sounds a lot like Twist and Shout

[plutoplatters]

@wjhmosaenglish03 Actually... you're correct ! Ritchie didn't "wrote" it .

[elmacizo1000]

@iMs0pHr3sH1 niether this is a clasic popular Mexican song to be more exact from the state of Veracruz , it is a SON JAROCHO, which was very popular in latin culture long before richie or trini.

[burnley5960]

@iMs0pHr3sH1 AS GOOD AS EACH OTHER BOTH GREAT SINGERS I LOVE THEM BOTH

[zuzukyd]

@iMs0pHr3sH1 none of them. This is a Traditional Mexican song, its from Veracruz(Mexico).

[padleynj]

@iMs0pHr3sH1 neither wrote it...it's basically a folk song...

[mrapina]

@iMs0pHr3sH1 This song is a mexican folk song written in the 16th century by african slaves.  This song is pretty old.

[meromiro]

@iMs0pHr3sH1 No one in this particular, this music is derived from traditional

Mexican street songs

[iMs0pHr3sH1]

who wrote this song trini lopez or ritchie vallens? i think ritchies is better.

[ezri99]

What's Amy Winehouse doing in the front row, on the right lol

[perpetual61]

Gracias Hermano te Musica Trini Lopez. I have always been So Proud of Trini because he's the First Hispanic to become Famous Long before Gloria Estefan or Ricky Martin. He's Chicano just like me.

[AngieCosco]

sorry but i really dont like his version. I like Ritchie Valents better.

[exitoyfama]

@AngieCosco En america latina,,,la version de trini lopez fue muy conocida y tuvo exito! la de richie valents ni se sabia que habia existido ( eso recien se entero la gente al ver la pelicula la bamba)!!

[AngieCosco]

@exitoyfama Its hard for me to write in spanish, but I will reply in english...

I know that Ritchie's version is not the only one that exists that is good. One thing that I am glad to hear is that others around the world are still enjoying this song. I like many other different versions too, just not this one (ha ha)

Have you heard the version by Lila Downs? It's called.... Lila Downs. Los Lobos. Lalo G: La Bamba Remix . It is one of the best in my opinion.

[exitoyfama]

@AngieCosco las versiones antiguas todas son buenas!! very good!! one kiss for you, bye!!

[v8motorheader]

@AngieCosco

My word, that certainly is interesting. Not to my taste really, but respect where it is due! I do like it.

[AngieCosco]

@v8motorheader Thanks, I told ya all so.

[kashyray]

Timeless classic...

[NajeraOrtiz]

OMG in 0:37 is Jorge Ortiz de Pinedo?

[Meelbalgirl]

So old, but still so cool!!:D

@Meelbalgirl

That's the true...!

[GIBASCHOENMANN]

Essa musica não tem tempo, ela é eterna, abraços mil do Picolé do Gil diretamente de Belém do Pará, Brasil.

Que de farandoles endiablées à l'époque , où même les "laids pous " avaient une chance de se faire inviter par une jeune fille ....!

[Knockout9024x]

Trini eS Dios!!! XD

[nancyfloressantos]

Lovely version!!

[benzter09]

the hive girl at 00:45 some one throw her a sandwich shes like a sitting corpse

no wonder she's not clapping she must not have the strength

[lakings13]

@benzter09 is all it takes just to hold her head up!

[PhantominTube]

This remind me of my merry teenage days

[gemma1964able]

what is going on with the lady with hat? think she doesn't enjoy the show..maybe her mother forced her to go and watch or maybe she had a toothache...LOL! If she's still living...hope she read this!

[mariaraquel2608]

Minha paixão de infancia... Que saudade!... Por donde anda Trini Lopez???

[nickodemo1]

una boca de gracia :D

[laspod5125]

0:40 White people like "WTF??"

[ajmusic11271]

y who said what,,,am white an av got pure black friends an family

[Kohntarkosz]

The weird thing is, that one guy in the middle with the beard and mustache is the only person in the whole audience clapping correctly. You're supposed to clap on the 2 and the 4 (as he is doing) not the 1 and the 3 (like everyone else is doing).

[nancyfloressantos]

Lovely version

[konkanimoggi]

GREAT really great...entertainment.

[IchbindasSystemJaJa]

lol

[fferocious]

To Ladylittles: 'By the way "Afro" is a hair style not a culture or a people.'

Then who or what are Afro-Americans?

[modsbeck]

Afro -- Africa

[slowfoodwawa]

This is really great. They are perfect for this kind of music.

[gabrielfranciscani]

Espetacular.

[Gretchen620]

hi whatever you say

[ajmusic11271]

stunning version of this song

[payasitopimpim2002]

trini era un verdadero idolo esa epoca..tan linda que se fue.......los 60s

[RickJ32]

This is one of the best versions of La Bamba that I have ever heard.

[kykdaar]

FYI: Trini's recording preceded Richie Valen's version ...

[carlos45703030]

For those impressed by the good sound, para los que ven buen sonido, I strongly suggest, les sugiero, listen to both Live at PJ´s Lps. los dos albumes en vivo en PJ´s, Trini seems to be using a Fender 2X12" Twin Reberb amp and a Gibson hollow body Barney Casey guitar and the Bass Player has the ever present Fender Precission Bass plus Bassman Amp and 2X15" Speaker cabinet

[carlos45703030]

Yes, it is basically the same type of chord progressions, I have played both.

Agree on good manners, worlwide young people seem to be a bit, well, less well behaved, as we say in my country, the cheap seats have invaded the playing field.

[pogijuice9061]

i noticed that this song sounds similar to the beatles twist and shout

[faceofpo]

No surprise there. The Beatles were inspired by all the modern music at the time.

[ladylittles]

Are you talking about the Beatles cover of Twist and Shout? Because it's actually the Isley brother's Twist and Shout.

[dimges]

La Bamba is mexican folk song,first modified version is from 1958, oldies then Twist and Shout... I think that Twist and Shout is modified copy of La Bamba.. listen Tom Jones version of Twist and Shout... ( on legendary show in 1974, hi perform Twist and Shout in Latino style, with 3 black women singer)

[ladylittles]

Yes. I know about La Bamba. I disagree about Twist and Shout. The Isley brothers deepest influence came from Gospel music and the song does not even faintly resemble La Bamba. As for Tom, don't care for his cover at all. Did not sound very "Latino" at all to me.

[dimges]

of course, I'm not music expert ..Tom version of Twist and shout from 1973 isn't Latino, maybe hi input in rock song some Afro style.. but after , more performer make mix

[ladylittles]

The intro to Tom's version sounded much like LaBamba but if you listen to Beatles version the intro is very similar and I think that is what Tom copied. LIsten to it.  By the way, "Afro" is a hair style not a culture or a people.

[TheLarryBrown]

@pogijuice9061: Good get. However, since the chord progression is just I IV V IV repeated over and over again, there's probably thousands of songs that are similar. I looked up both songs and they both are written out as I IV V, but what I hear and see Trini doing here is I IV V IV. I think the Beatles do that also. Of course, you were tipped off by Trini throwing in the "ahh, ahhh, ahhh, AHHH!" chord pyramid that is featured in Twist & Shout.

[wendydale1]

More people should dress up now when they go out instead of guys wearing their crotch down to their knees and girls walking @ in public in their pjs. People have lost their class to a large degree.

[batkojomo]

Trini es el mejor !!!!

[Cisco19451]

Miren bien cual es el acompañamiento de trini, un bajo, la batería y la guitarra de TRINI LOPEZ

[WeiPan88]

You should hear him sings " Grenada " !!!!

[WeiPan88]

Simply one the greatest entertainer and singer of our times.

[ferreiranpor]

esse é meu tio avô!!!!!!!!!!!

[jamesriker66]

great stuff but kittielips got go now! 5 stars for the song

[peterl44]

I was subjected to this song as a kid by my father...hated it...now I think it is cool...

[wendydale1]

You're right it is cool. I remember my mom loved Trini Lopez back then too. Aren't we lucky to have YouTube to relive our childhood to some degree?!

[123ThisIsMe]

reply to 'wendydale1'

Yepp, you said what I often thought.

But, not only can we relive childhood through many songs and videos on YouTube - there are so many other things that songs can bring back to our heart and mind. ...

I just wish that videos wouldn't constantly be removed because of the Copyrights. So many great ones have vanished from my Favorites over time.

[huesero51]

Original folk music, lyrics and dancing from the state of VERACRUZ, México. -- " Para poder ir al cielo, se necesita una escalera grande y otra cosita..."

[d3vilcat2004]

what year is this?

[ffferocious]

Wonderful song and wonderful singer. But it just disgusts me every time I see one of these videos and am reminded of how we were forever wearing tie and jacket. Every last person in the above video is dressed up. Thank goodness for the hippies who revolutionized our style of dress. No more "uniform."

[megatonmisty]

Idiot !

Now the `Uniform` is the dirty untidy illdiscipled `Hippy Look` .

What a filthy legacy , which is now an integral part of `Broken Brittain` .

[brianheffronjr]

you are the ball lickers!

[Kittielips]

That's awful. Please remove this comment.

[ffferocious]

If you think the "Hippy Look" made a "Broken Britain" you better study some economics in addition to learning how to spell "illdisciplined". In fact what you wrote is pathetically hilarious: "Dirty, Untidy, Illdisciplined "Hippy Look" An Integral Part Of "Broken Britain".

Jerk!

[Kittielips]

I think that more men should be wearing suits as opposed to 'scruffy' jeans and tee-shirts actually.

You've all made a disgrace of this channel, and I'm not helping either.

[fferocious]

Kittielips: This is a free country and men should have the right to choose what they wear wherever they want. Any man with brains will know there are certain types of dress for certain places and on certain occasions. Let the individual make the decision and choice of style.

[Kittielips]

A "free country?" Don't make me "LOL" whatever you do. You can't open your mouth these days without someone "getting all weepy" and whingeing about their so called "rights". As far as I'm concerned, a smartly dressed man, whether it be trousers and shirt, suit or tie, beats jeans and t-shirts in my opinion. Anyway, what does individual mean? Everyone seems to wear identical tattoos these days. Is that classed as being individual?

[elaine072]

Trini Lopez es un artista latino que llego a la cuspide y sorprendio a los americanos con su musica latina. Es lo maximo y su cuna proviene de MEXICO.

[ironbuttermilk]

Three string bass at 3:51! I remember busting a G string on my old Orlando Jazz Bass copy in my Freshman year and not being able to afford a new one for awhile.

[fortesrosane]

Thank for this vídeo. I love Trini Lopez singing this music. I can remember my 13 or 14 years old. I'm now with 59. Oh! I forgot: I'm from Brazil.

[belovingsomeoldies]

outstanding dallas texas boy...he started it all
