The late, great Ritchie Valens.

This is his version of the timeless classic, La Bamba. The other versions on Youtube, claiming to be Ritchie Valens are the Los Lobos cover from the movie of the same name starring Ritchie.

Disclaimer- I do not own this, I'm merely allowing people to hear his version.

  • Gutsy to release a pop song in Spanish in the '50's.

  • he released this song when he was 16. a year before that he was just another singing Mexican kid in the valley of Southern CA. i was 17 when i really took the time to listen to this song... he was my age at the time when he died. i wish i had half the talent he had

  • Ricardo Valenzuela was a gift to us all while he was among us. His talent, his love of family, and his passion made an impression on me. Just to distinguish myself from racist nutjobs, I'll go ahead and reveal that I'm a conservative white guy! May God grant Eternal Rest to Ricardo. Viva Ritchie, Viva!

    Antes de falar algo pesquise meu amigo, essa musica é de uma banda mexicana chamada Los Lobos, ele apresentou essa musica em um show, apos isso que ele regravou a mesma em disco....

  • Only if he never took that plane ride he would still be here :( but his music is :)

  • We will sing it in Choir :D

  • Below many of you will find idiotic bitch immigrant haters and smart accepting Americans. I'd suggest you only read the comments of the latter. Reader discretion is advised.

    By the way just watched a video on the plane crash. Sad death for 3 of music's greats.

  • Ritchie Valens (born Richard Steven Valenzuela; May 13, 1941 – February 3, 1959) was a Mexican-American singer, songwriter and guitarist.
