Finally, my manager negotiated a deal where I got to produce my own records.

I got my own back.

I mean, I think we're put here on earth to make your own destiny, to begin with. I don't think there's anything you can do this way or that way to change anything.

From that, I became very anxious to produce something of my own.

I produce for a low price and I sell it on my own to 80 countries.

Because Ritchie Valens WAS the real deal. He was only starting, but in the time he spent in the business, he made big impact. I don't know if anybody could have made a bigger one.
