La Bamba (song)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


"La Bamba" is a traditional song created in the Mexican state of Veracruz over 300 years ago. Influenced by Spanish flamenco and Afro-Cuban beats, the song utilizes the violin, jaranas, guitar, and harp, and is sung in falsetto. Lyrics to the song greatly vary, as performers often improvise verses while performing. However, versions (such as those by musical groups Mariachi Vargas de Tecalitlan and Los Pregoneros del Puerto) have survived due to the artists’ popularity and have become the “definitive” versions. The traditional aspect of "La Bamba" lies in the tune itself, which remains the same through all versions. The name of the dance, which has no direct English translation, is presumably connected with the Spanish verb bambolear, meaning "to shake".

The traditional song inspired Ritchie Valens' rock and roll version “La Bamba” in the 1950's

"Pastime with Good Company" Henry VIII claimed to have written it, but he probably stole it from someone else, and no one dared contradict him.
