Ritchie became a rock n roll prodigy at the age of 14! Started out playing in California bootleg joints and Mexican cantinas! And all the while rock n roll was still new and cutting edge for the times. He would have been the Rick James the Prince and the Michael of the 50's and 60's had he lived long enough! Dang tragedy what happened to him, a true life shooting star like Selena Quintinilla-Perez!

Ritchie Valens is the self-titled debut album by Ritchie Valens, posthumously released by Del-Fi Records in March 1959, one month after his death in a plane crash. It is his only studio album entirely composed of master tracks recorded at Gold Star Studios. The album peaked at #23 on the Billboard album chart. The LP yielded four U.S. chart singles: "Come On, Let's Go" (#42), "Donna" (#2), "La Bamba" (#22), and "That's My Little Suzie" (#55).

This song and performance gives me chills knowing what would soon happen. It actually scares me...when the girl covers her head all I can see in my mind is the final moments before the plane clash... It’s horrible. Such a tragedy to have lost him at that young age. You just know he had so much more to give the world. I’m 23 and this is far before my time but I miss him all the same, just like I miss Buddy Holly, John Lennon and George Harrison and all the other lost legends of music. If there is an afterlife, I hope they are all jamming somewhere together now.

I always imagine if Ritchie was alive in 1969. I could see his music evolving and being right there with Jimi Henrix as a revolutionary rock and roll influence. Obviously he still was, but he was just beginning.

This is actually how it works in real life. If you ever see a rock star eating, just demand they entertain you and they'll pick up a guitar and start singing.

“ It’s all about Ritchie! What about me?” I liked the movie ( made me cry when I was 6 years old). I’m 34 now and still cry when ever I watch the movie. I Love his talent. He is one of the reasons why I became a musician. My greatest respects for the familia Valenzuela!

Ritchie was the King of Chicano Rock and Roll that was taken away too young at 17 years of age eight months right before his music career and fame was about to kick off

This is from the Movie: Go, Johnny, Go! is a 1959 rock and roll film starring Alan Freed as a talent scout searching for a future rock and roll star. Co-starring in the film are Jimmy Clanton, Sandy Stewart, and Chuck Berry and Richie Valens. Crank this Classic Up!

Vim parar aqui pelo filme, já assisti várias vezes e me emociono com a história desse garoto que deixou o mundo tão cedo. Se não tivesse partido tão prematuramente teria sido um estrondo mundial. Até hj suas músicas são lembradas.

This was a 17 year old kid! 17! There is very little doubt had Ritchie lived he'd be on the short list for greatest of all-time in rock n roll and maybe music in general. To give you even more perspective on just how prematurely his life was cut short, Woodstock was 10 and a half years after the infamous tragic plane crash. Ritchie Valens would've been only 28 years old and no doubt still relevant and would've performed at Woodstock. Hell, Woodstock 94 he'd of been only 53 and probably would've performed there as well. Such a tragic loss.

Elvis had an unparalleled voice in terms of the beauty of the voice itself with it's rich sound...but Ritchie Valens understood music better, and had more potential to change music by creating songs.

Agreed. Richie was so young and greatlooking - he didn't get a chance to unfold his true potential.
@Maridun506 жыл бұрын
Ritchie was a rising star - only 17 when he was killed. He was great looking - had sex-appeal - he wrote his own music - played the guitar - he could sing rock'n'roll or ballads equally well. He hadn't at all reached his full potential when he died. Of course it's a matter of taste who you like the best - but with Richies good looks, his rythm and everything, he could have been a serious rival to Elvis.

It’s amazing, he’s amazing. It’s crazy how you can easily tell he’s young and new to the business with how he presents himself. He has a certain teenage awkwardness about him. Amazing voice and talent though, truly missed.
