Yeah, he was a good singer for his age. I really like Buddy Holly's music too. Both of them lads and The Big Bopper were all killed together in a plane crash. "La Bamba" is a decent biopic of him as is The Buddy Holly Story. Lou Diamond Phillips is Ritchie Valens and Gary Busey is Buddy Holly in their respective films.Just found out Ritchie Valens died at 17! so tragic. As a music fan it seemed like the world was robbed of a great talent.
For him to remake/turn a song like La Bamba into a hit is remarkable.
I am disappointed I don't know more about him.
