The Official Ritchie Valens Website
June 30, 1999 92 Comments
Yesterday we visited the Buddy Holly website, and saw the impact his music made. Today we visit one of his contemporaries whose music also made an impact, and is remembered today as well.
It is the Ritchie Valens website, and is maintained by Del-Fi Records, the company who recorded him during his all too short career. Here you can find out a lot of information about who Ritchie was, about how he grew up, and how his sound was discovered and recorded. There are extensive links to other sites, as well as photos and sounds to listen to.
Needless to say, Ritchie was part of the events on the day the music died. But his rock and roll legacy lives on, both in the film La Bamba, and in his music which is still as popular on the airwaves today as it was forty years ago. Enjoy your visit here today.
