Ritchie Valens vs Los Lobos - "La Bamba"

Episode 136 throws it way back to 1958 when Ritchie Valens made this classic that still gets played today - "La Bamba", that then Los Lobos imitated in 1987.

It's our second ever translation episode (first being Gangnam Style) where we try to decipher what this song is really all about, who did it better, and determine if it might have the best guitar breakdown in music history. LA BAMBA is NEXT!
