Title: Rare treat
Product review: Great compilation of Ritchie Valens that lives up to its title.Tracks 21-28 are his personal rehearsal tapes made at home. Ritchie and his guitar, stripped to bare essentials, are equal to much of his studio work. My impression is Bob Keene pushed him a little in the studio to pick things up. At home his great voice is accompanied by an instinctive and more natural slow bop rhythm that makes for a rare treat indeed.Pacoima's own Ritchie Valens at seventeen was truly phenomenal.
