Ritchie Valens wrote the song and we should give him most of the credit. Los Lobos then sung the song and made it very famous. It hit number one in the United states and United Kingdom! When Valens sang it, he made it to the Rolling Stone top 500. It was the only song in Spanish on that list.

While Richie Valens made the song La Bamba famous world wide with his version of La Bamba, I doubt if he wrote La Bamba as La Bamba was a well know Mexican folk song. It would be nice to know who the author of La Bamba is because I think it is one of the best song ever written! Will we ever know? What a loss to the world that Richie Valens died so young as he was multi-talented as a song writer and performer in his own right!
