The life of rock & roll legend Richie Valens bursts across the screen in this celebrated, music-filled movie with star-making performances by Lou Diamond Phillips as Richie and Esai Morales as his half-brother, Bob. LA BAMBA depicts the 17-year-old Mexican-American's rocket rise to fame, from field laborer to rock star with a string of hit singles and a date with destiny. Fueled by Valens' hit songs performed by the Grammy®-winning Los Lobos as well as classic '50s tunes, LA BAMBA recreates the thrilling early days of rock and pays homage to the enduring legacy of a remarkable talent whose music crossed all borders.

The brother gave an underrated performance in this movie

[brandystephens]

I’m 40 and this video still touches home so thankful to my grandmother for introducing me to this music

[johnmcclain]

Bob is the best part of this video. "OH BOY!"

[mattturner]

This video needs more views than it has

[nigle]

The song he was playing was “Oh Boy” by Buddy Holly, a star who Ritchie would go on to die in a plane crash with 😢. I don’t know if this actually happened in real life but it’s a morbid reference for sure.

Rosanna DeSoto was so underrated in this movie ❤

[willwozniak]

Bobs not too bad on the drums....he should have joined up with his baby bro.

[davidsandoval]

When Connie gets asked to dance, she mouths "Me? That's my baby" it's the little details

[yanni]

The Bar Owner was the General in Good Morning Vietnam!

"At the bar tonight "
😂😂😂.Like the actor of ritchie valens

[mariof.]

Bob era a toda madre con su carnal y lo quería un chingo y su madre nunca se fijo en eso de acuerdo a esta historia, Bob era rebelde, bien pedo y marihuano pero con un corazón noble y que le faltó apoyo y comprensión, Esai Morales hizo suya está gran película .

[ivanvargas]

Like the movie la bamba but it so sad at the end

[justaguy]

Just imagine
If bob had learned to play drums
Maybe he had some talent like ritchie
Naybe they couldve bonded even more with that

[robewil-pers]

I understand they play both kinds of music in that bar.

Irmão dele se tivesse juízo poderia ter se tornando uma músico dele
