In 1993, Vela wrote "Tu Robaste Mi Corazon", a duet with Selena featuring

sampled her "Back on the Chain Gang" (1983) single. She eventually allowed the band to include it on Amor Prohibido after Vela provided an English-language translation of the track for Hynde.[11] "Fotos y Recuerdos" peaked at number one on the Hot Latin Songs chart following the shooting death of Selena on March 31, 1995.[12] Vela remained an active presence in the music industry and provided songs he wrote to various artists, with his final songwriting credit "Contigo" which was written for Kumbia Kings in 2003. The track "Lo Dejo Solo" which was penned by Vela in 1986 was shelved and remained unreleased until 2006 on the posthumously released Classic Series, Vol. I.[4]
