I could find very little information on Latin Funk trumpeter, Ray Camacho. His band was revolving line-up, starting out in the Central Valley and ending up in San Francisco, playing shows with Santana, Tower of Power, and The Carpenters. Apparently, he once played a show under fire at a USO show in Vietnam, but at least one person remembers this 1970 (perhaps '71) song, "Se Si Puede", being a staple at Chicano anti-war marches in Los Angeles.
