About the artist

Chicano folk singer whose eight-minute 'Vietnam Veterano', built around interview excerpts with a Chicano Vietnam veteran, closed his 1983 LP 'California Corazon' (Cuervo Records) and was anthologized on Smithsonian Folkways' 'Rolas de Aztlan: Songs of the Chicano Movement' (2005), which describes him as a musician and award-winning journalist. Reyes did not serve in Vietnam himself; the song carries the recorded voice of a veteran. [Source: Smithsonian Folkways; Discogs]
