Music Monday: “La Bomba” from the 1958 and 1987
Posted By RichC on October 17, 2022
Los Lobos performing at the White House in 2009
Although there are likely several other musicians and recording of the song “La Bomba,” the two artists that come to mind are Ritchie Valens version 
in 1958 and then the Los Lobos recording in 1987 which was the title track for the film La Bomba in 1987 about Valens. Both versions make even my toe tap … but I have zero musical talent.
