Ritchie Valens Bobblehead Don't miss out on the first Ritchie Valens Bobblehead featuring the musician whose hit songs “Donna” and “La Bamba” were released six months before he tragically died at the age of 17 in a plane crash along with fellow musicians J.P. "The Big Bopper" Richardson on February 3rd, 1959, in Clear Lake, Iowa. Don McLean wrote one of the most recognizable songs of all time with his 1971 hit “American Pie” to reflect on the loss of an early rock and roll generation that day in February. Through his lyrics, the song remembers “The Day the Music Died.” Valens was posthumously inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, the Rockabilly Hall of Fame, the Native American Music Awards Hall of Fame, the California Hall of Fame, and has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
