The interview with Connie, Ritchie’s sister, was moving. My eyes moistened when she explained that after his death, she lost a father figure and her mom had a nervous breakdown. Thanks for documenting this lovely festival. Definitely, Ritchie Valens’ music lives on to delight generation after generation. 🌹
I have heard that his family was on set when the movie was being filmed and yelled at the actor who played Richie please don't get on that plane so sad
Cant believe his sister was so kind to interview her. Days like this are just be bitter sweet for her.
She was being pulled in many directions for interviews, but she was absolutely wonderful to take time to interview with me as well!

What part of this video did you interview her? I must've missed that part.
agree seems like a nice lady
@@Sig721Tau it's at 7:44 into the video.
I went to school with Ritchie. He used to sit on the lunch tables and plan and sing during lunch.
Wow how cool is that! Do u remember donna? Were you in class when u heard about Ritchie.
WOW!!!! That had to be so Cool !!
I would have liked to see Donna, was hoping she attended Ritchies Memorial.
the 50s to be a teen in would have been amazing
So fortunate for you... I envy you!!! Sending Brother Bob best wishes for continued good health and much love & prayers! Thanks Bob for all of your support and for you’re enduring well wishes toward the memory of Ritchie... it means so much to us that grew with his exciting music, he just had flare with his songs & music!! Take care! ❤️👍🏻🥰😍🥳🍬🦄🌸
So glad you attended so that "we could" too. Thanks.
Totally agree!!
Cre80s YES ! Thank you so much for this !
What a special event to witness. I was going to say getting to speak with the family was way better than getting a shirt but then they gave you one of theirs. What a nice family. I'm glad his legacy is living on and hopefully his items can be in a museum.
I am 37 years old and I remember when that movie came out and I love it and his music
Great
Hello to Connie and all the Valens/Valenzuela family!! Rock on!! Jordan you really knocked this one out of the ballpark!! Fab job as always!!
Thank you very much!
My husband's parents had tickets for the show that Ritchie and the others never made it to. They still talk about it to this day. I will have to show them this vlog. I loved the movie when it came out. Thanks Jordan for this special vlog. By the way my mother-in-law is named Donna.
I love La Bamba. The pictures were great. RICHIE!!! I love that in the movie when his brother yelled that. Such a loss of a great talent. Just like Selena. Thank you Jordan. Much love to you and Jah ❤
That's one of my favorite scenes too!! Ritchie!!!!!!!
That guy dancing was having a good time lol
This is Huge. Just like you, I fell in love with Ritchie Valens in 87 with the release of La Bamba the film.
beautiful tribute to Ritchie Valens to keeping his memory alive, very heartfelt to hear his sister share her memories
Lovely! What an honor for Richie's legacy! Thanks, Jordan!
Beautiful video and so happy to see a whole city honors the life of one of our own Latino rock stars (the very first one, in fact).
We love you Ritchie!
You are wonderful when interviewing people. They seem to be so comfortable and open with you.
thank you for showing the tribute to Ritchie, I did'nt even know this took place. Very touching, my little heart is happy. RIP Bob 9/2018
Very well done, Ritchie’s sister is a very gracious and genuine lady. Bless her and the entire family. Thank you
This was an Amazing day! I had chills and tears watching the siblings sing together. Fun to see all the people enjoying the music and history together. Thanks Jordan for taking us along!
This was moving. I’m so glad you went and supported his family. I’ve always been drawn to this story and once had a babysitter for my kids that went to school with Richie and Donna.
Wonderfull memorial to Ritchie Valens, such a young, talented artist, good to see the little fella Jah x Thankyou Jordan x
I am so glad you went to this festival! I also loved La Bamba. I had no idea that he only had 1 year of any kind of fame How tragic that he was just starting out his career. What a great interview with Ritchie's sister! She was so nice and informative. Thank you for sharing Jordan!
This was so awesome to hear from his family so moving thank u so much ,he was a great Artist that passed too soon .
A very touchung interview with Richie's little sister. Great vlog.
Yes it was a good vlogg. I grew up in pacoima so it felt like jordan took me to my old neighborhood. ✌
Absolutely love this was so good love the movie Labama and Lou Diamond Phillips playing as Ritchie Valens he did a amazing job
We grew up on the la bamba movie in the 80's, my first grade teacher used to bring in her guitar and play la bamba for us on occasion. That is one thing i always looked forward to, love that song.
Thank you for this vlog. I remember as kid watching la bamba so many times. I’m glad my son loves it too. Omg his sister is so nice and I’m glad they’re keeping his memory alive. Will definitely keep Bob in our prayers.
Really enjoyed this wonderful vlog. It was so moving seeing his family. I was only 6 years old when Ritchie died, but when I saw LaBamba in the 80"s, it touched my heart. I can"t watch it without crying every time. Thank you Jordan. All your vlogs are wonderful.
Just another great vlog it was a pleasure meeting you my wife & kids got a kick out of meeting you too. Keep going!
Hi!! Thank you for commenting! Pleasure was all mine!
Wish I couldve met you here in Dallas!!!😎😎
That was a fantastic day! I wouldn’t have wanted it to be over. It was definitely cool to hear his brother play and sing. His sister is such a nice person. Those highway sign flashlights are so cool! La Bamba has been a favorite song of mine since I was a little kid. Poor Jay-he will have to go back to the park soon.
The whole soundtrack for the movie was great! I had it on tape
Thanks for sharing your video of the Ritchie Valens family and friends of his! 👍👍👍🌹🌹... I was just 13 years old at the time when I heard about the plane crash that killed, Ritchie Valens, Buddy Holly, and the, Big Bopper. ... I have never forgotten about that day, because, I had just heard of Ritchie Valens, about a year before his untimely, and tragic death at such a very young age. I will never forget that day, because he is my all time favorite singer. And, Buddy Holly, is my second all time favorite singer, and I just wish that they would have lived long enough to have made many more great songs, (hopefully together); because, as the song goes, "That was the day that the music died," 😭 for me and many other fans of, Ritchie Valens, Buddy Holly, and of course, The Big Bopper. 🌹🌹🌹... Thanks for sharing your video on UA-cam! ... 👍👍👍🌹🌹🌹💌🌷🎸🎵🔐📍👍
Richie was great , glad to see the family is doing well.
Great interview Jordan! Connie must have such mixed emotions celebrating her brother's life, she was so gracious. We've seen the movie and feel like we know Richie thru his music & movie but that was Connie's brother and she lived through that story, imagine that. Thanks for the great vlog.
Jordan u r TOTAL AWESOMENESS!!! Truly enjoyed this video! Thanks for sharing this with us!🙌⭐️⭐️⭐️
What a great vlog. Great way to honor Richie, with a highway sign. Sad about Bob's cancer, but glad he is doing better.
A wonderful vlog Jordan, a sad story. But Ritchie will always be remembered. Thank you Jordan!
Thank you so much. I'm a big fan of the Valens family. They have remained strong in keeping his gift of music alive for us all. Such a tragic ending. Wonderful vlog. Belinda in NC
How awesome!! My dad went to high school with him at San Fernando High, everyone was devastated when Richie died! He went to his funeral at the San Fernando Mission. Mom and dad’s first date was shortly afterward. Can’t wait to share this video with my mom!
That's wonderful!!
I'm going to rewatch this with my kids. They love Ritchie so much. We saw some of his belongings at the rock and roll hall of fame. I'm really glad lou diamond got the part of Ritchie. 💙 his sister was so sweet to talk to you and us. Great vlog Jordan
Great! La Bamba is amazing
I never knew who he was until I saw the movie .....I was so moved I bawled. Hearing the song took a whole new meaning. Great movie and so neat to have a remembrance. His sister seemed so sweet ... what a tragic event for the family. Blessings and Prayers for Bob! 💞🙏🏻
😢 just a beautiful ceremony....The Valenzuela Family a huge shout out for living with a legend.
6:00 the lady in the wheelchair is my grandma and she was friends with Richie and the lady in a pink dress is my auntie pinky and my Mom was there she would go Richie's house my grandma has just turned 70
14:39 the lady with the short black hair pulling her pants up is my Mom talking to my grandma
Great vlog!! I grew up listening to Ritchie Valens music and loved the movie La Bamba.....so cool of you to go and bring us along!! You're awesome Jordan!! Thanks!!
Great vlog Jordan! I live about 20 minuets from the crash site and have attended several concerts at The Surf Ballroom over the years. I never realized how significant the history was until I got older... I just grew up with it in my own back yard without understanding the huge impact they had on the rock’n roll movement so I always took it for granted. They have The Winter Dance Party every February in Clear Lake, IA, at the Surf Ballroom of course, but people come from all over the WORLD to little old Clear Lake, IA to honor Ritchie, Buddy, and the Big Bopper. I’ve never gone but have heard it’s a blast. Thank you for doing this vlog, it was very interesting!
his sister looks great and such a good spirit about her , good to see she is doing great .
Another awesome blog Jordan, you never disappoint. RIP RValens, so young.

The real Bob, saw Lou Diamond Phillips before he got the role of Ritchie & told one of the producers that Lou was Ritchie. Long live Ritchie Valenzuela💜💜
This was so good, really brought back memories. I had just turned 11 when we heard that they all died. Wonderful music then. Love watching.
I love his music and the movie too!
Awesome and Incredible festival, interview, and dedication!!!! Very Cool Treat!!!!
Excellent vlog as always, Jordan, thank you. Sometime when the time is right I hope you can also do a vlog about another pioneer California rocker we lost much too soon, Eddie Cochran.
I grew up in pacoima 12601 mineola street. This vlog brings back memories as a child. Thank u... ✌
Hey Jordan, I found you in my suggestions a few weeks back and been watching your vlogs non stop, GREAT stuff man!!! So I play 7 instruments and i'm in 2 bands right now, my 1st instrument was saxophone but after watching LaBamba I to started playing guitar (1991), learning all the chords and a few months went by and I started playing Ritchies music, I'm very versatile in music and play just about every genre. My old original metal band was gonna play the whiskey a go-go but unfortunately my mom passed away suddenly and I fell out of the music scene for a few years, I live in St. Louis. Anyway I really like what your doing and I enjoy your videos, by the way my 8 month old daughter watches them with me and when there over she starts fussing LOL.
I was 14 when I first saw La bamba but didn't know about Ritchie Valens but the songs (Los Lobos version) kept kicking in my head since then. Now I'm 47, and I watched La Bamba again 3 days ago. My emotions just exploded. Now I know about Ritchie, and the movie is based on a real person. The best thing I loved about Ritchie was that he's a humble person who took care of his mum and his family, and he was a great human being. That's why I keep learning about him and started watching videos related him. May God bless him and his family.
Wow this is amazing …… Forever in our thoughts Ritchie God bless you man
That was a great vlog, I'm so happy you were able to take us there. Richie has a lovely family, they are so nice. You can tell they are really proud of him, and love him very much. 🎸
Im glad you enjoyed it
Yes, family made the posters and art ads!
Ritchie the best uno delos grandes
That’s for this first hand view. I really felt like I was there in person!
Outstanding!! Thank you for taking us along. Much love to you & Jah. 💕
Lovely vlog of a much loved man RIP Ritchie. Tyvm Jordan
What a great day that was…. Thank you for making it available to us in a different country….
What a great video. She was so sweet to take the time to talk to you.
Thank you Jordan the Lion.. let's keep the legend's stay in the present.. Lou Diamond Phillips was my dream boat in this movie..later disappointed but Lou Diamond Phillips was not even Native American or Mexican. But I would have loved to be Donna. Vive Richie
Wonderful vlog and amazing honor of Ritchie Valens. Thank you for sharing this with us.
After you told me, on a live chat, that I had to watch La bamba (that I had not seen before) I watched it , loved it and downloaded the movie soundtrack and listen to it driving in my truck. Sad story, but glad they are honoring him and his music.The interview with his sister is awesome Jordan. She seems like a real nice lady. Great movie and thanks for the recommendation Jordan.
Thank you Jordan. You are a Golden Lion.! Your kindness and empathy are much appreciated. Peace..Love one another.
I remember hearing stories of Ritchie when I was little. He's my dad's cousin Frankie Valens. I miss my dad. Thanks JTL for this.
Thank you so much for attending this event and sharing it with us.
What a great day for you Jorden. That is so cool to see the Vallens family singing and celebrating the life of Richie Vallens.
Touching and exciting knowing the legacy lives on and that Richie's family is dedicated to his memory along with the love of family and friends. Great vlog, Jordan. ❤
Connie and Ritchie look so much alike 💕
I feel like i was there to,what an amazing tribute to him.
I used to live in pacoima,lived there for five years,I loved it,it is great to see this thankyou for sharing
What a smasher of a vlog on Ritchie Valens. Loved the movie, an hw kool is it then 2 get one on one interviews with the family. U got some g8 memorabilia there Jordan well deserved 2 u . Hi Jah 💙
Ritchie will never be forgotten,same as my hero Buddy Holly,and Bopper as well,when they left us it really was the day the music died,thank you Jordan ur the best
Thank you for keeping Ritchie Valens memory alive by sharing this vlog with us Jordan. Your interview with his sister Connie was well done. This family has been through so much. I’m glad they gave you one of their personal T shirts to commemorate the event. Also your puppy the great little Jahster 🐕🦺 was precious at the end of the video. You could tell he was “not amused” that his dog park was not available. Sweet & bittersweet memories for sure. ❤️🙏🏻🌹
This music is so timeless! I had a gig at a local pub last Friday and sang songs from all eras and genres but the songs that got the crowd going and dancing the most were La Bamba, Jailhouse Rock and Roll Over Beethoven! Rock & Roll will never die!
That's great!
I was listening to the La Bamba sound track today Jordan. Great music
Hi Jordan, so happy you were able to go to this festival!
Great vlog. Nice interview with his sister. Great rock music. Lots of people showed up. What a wonderful honor to name a highway after Ritchie. Lovely business card his sister has. I think you got a better t shirt than the one they were giving away. Glad his memory is being kept alive.
Wonderful video!! Big fan of Ritchie! Thank u so much for this! 🤘🏻🤘🏻
Tanku so much for this ...
So cool interviewing his sister thats amazing.... loved Ritchies music love from Ireland 🇮🇪
Wow. Great interview with Ritchie's sister. My favorite song is Donna. La Bamba was when I was introduced to Ritchie and I had no idea about the crash and what American Pie (song) was based on. Lou Diamond Phillips is still one of my favorite actors. Thank you
So amazing! Thank you for sharing! La Bamba is definitely my all time favorite movie.
Awesome vlog Jordan, nice to see ritchie being remembered. ✨✨👍💛🎸🎤
Ritchie valens he is my inspiration in my life forever
Wow, what a treat to see this. Thank you so much. I would have loved to attended this festival.
Another GREAT vlog, Jordan!! And GREAT interview with Ritchie's sister, Connie!! Awesome!! Keep them coming, Jordan!! Give Jah a kiss for me!! 😊✌🐶🐾❤🖖
Wow so sad, i watched the movie and he was still a child. Makes you want to cry but it is great his family keeps his memory Alive. I enjoyed watching, Brother was giving that harmonica HECK! Great Job ! And check out dude in front of the stage dancing Lol gettin down having a good time. RIP Ritchie
I especially enjoyed he interview with Ritchie's sister!!!!!!
Thank you Jordan! When the movie LaBamba came out I went and seen it 4 times, it really saddened me how Richie was only 17, the movie soundtrack is so good! I would love to attend a Richie Valens Day in the future.
Thank you for attending this so we can all see it! Awesome vlog!
