The very missed Ritchie Valens with “Rockin’ All Night” (https://youtu.be/jzNcQ-npZSA?si=GQ1M2hWHsYdJ5SsQ). I highly recommend checking out Valens’s posthumous album “Concert at Pacoima Jr. High” (https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL07E3E62E4F071A66&si=wvqDgsD2p88TV7PR). He was absolutely magical live.
