Ritchie Valens performing “Ooh! My Head“, released originally in 1959.
“Ooh! My Head“ is a lively rock and roll tune, written by Ritchie Valens and Little Richard. It showcases the energetic sounds of the late 1950s and highlights Valens’ unique style as a Mexican American musician.
Valens was an influential figure in the Chicano rock movement, making significant strides in the music industry before his untimely death. He was just 17 years old when he tragically passed away in a plane crash alongside Buddy Holly and The Big Bopper on February 2, 1959, an event later memorialized as “The Day the Music Died“ in Don McLean’s song “American Pie.“
Despite his short life, Valens left behind a rich musical legacy. His first, self-titled album was released shortly after the accident, enjoying chart success. Later, a live recording titled “Ritchie Valens in Concert at Pacoima Junior High“ was also released. In 1987, the movie “La Bamba“ recounted Valens’ life story, with Lou Diamond Phillips playing the lead role, and Los Lobos providing the soundtrack. Valens was posthumously inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2001.
In conclusion, “Ooh! My Head“ is a vibrant and catchy tune that showcases Ritchie Valens’ talent and potential. Although his life was tragically short, his music continues to inspire and captivate listeners around the world.
