Ritchie Valens died on February 3d, 1959, at the age of 17. He was never married.
Ritchie Valens was not married but almost was to his only girlfriend Donna he also made a song dedicated to her.
Richie Valens also wrote the song Paul Anka had a major hit with his song, Diana, written for his babysitter! MP
He only had two charted hits: 'Donna' went to number two in December 1958, and 'La Bamba' went to number 22 in January 1959. Isn't it interesting that 'La Bamba' is the only one today that gets any airplay? He also had a minor chart hit with 'C'mon Let's Go'.
(It spelled famous) And Ritchie Valens became known by first being in a band with his friends and the lead singer (not sure of the and name or band members.) The lead singer eventually envied Ritchie after he noticed that he cold sing better and play the gutiar at a good beat. Soon Ritchie became more in charge and the old band member wass lead out. Soon the Big Booper was offering ritchie something more than just a band but also a recording (which lead his life to success afterward.) At first Ritchie rejected the idea than thought about his family and the money and things they needed so he took the job and started after that. Later once he was already known mostly all over the country he was flying back in forth performing concerts as you should know he died in a plane crash during i think was a blizzard killing all thre ritchie valens, the big blooper ,and buddy holly (including the pilot.) Ritchie valens friend was killed by a airplane part comming out from the sky as it fell from it's own crash ever since Ritchie was always dreaming or shall you say having nighmares about that incident and what do you know poor Rictchie Valens was killed in a plane crashed. Ritchie played many songs that are still here and many people still go on youtube.com to look at his many great song such as La Bamba,Donna (his only beloved girlfriend) oh come on lets go and so on!!!
