Para bailar la Bamba,: (from Wiki) "La Bamba" is a Mexican folk song, originally from the state of Veracruz, best known from a 1958 adaptation by Ritchie Valens, a top 40 hit in the U.S. charts and one of early rock and roll's best-known songs.

Se necesita una poca de gracia.: La Bamba combines Spanish, indigenous, and African musical elements. The name of the dance may perhaps be derived from the kimbundu word "mbamba" meaning "master" as in someone who does something adeptly or skillfully.
