Summary: The true story of pop star Ritchie Valens' rise to fame in the late 1950s, and of the tragedy that cut short a brilliant career. Ritchie, a Mexican fruit picker, always had a dream of becoming a rock singer, and a recurring nightmare of being killed in a plane crash. Both came true...

This is the biography of Ritchie Valens, a young Mexican/American whose talents as a rock and roll singer catapulted him from the obscurity of a farm laborer obsessed with music to stardom at the age of seventeen with a string of pop hits still popular today.
