In the late 1960s a wave of Mexican rock heavily influenced by psychedelic and funk rock emerged in several northern border Mexican states, in particular in Tijuana, Baja California. Among the most recognized bands from this “Chicano Wave” (La Onda Chicana in Spanish), there is one in particular that was recognized by their originality. The band Love Army derived from the Tijuana Five and was formed by Alberto Isordia (aka El Pajaro), Salvador Martinez, Jaime Valle (aka El Perro), Fernando Vahaux, Ernesto Hernandez(aka El Blu), Mario Rojas (aka El Muerto)and Enrique Sida.

Caminata Cerebral written and arranged by Jaime Valle (aka El Perro) www.reverbnation.com/jaimevalle, and vocalist Alberto Isordia (aka El Pajaro) was the most representative song of these times. It was also recorded in English (Walk Within My Brain). It reflected the state of the Mexican conterculture and the position of the Mexican youth against the government of that time.

The lyrics of Caminata Cerebral (Walk Within My Brain) (Author: Jaime Valle and Alberto Isordia) begin:
Tell me what's that that you're saying / I don't think I heard it well
Why keep talking for so long / Without having much to say
Cause I don't believe / that xxxx were coming
Just passed this mess again
The truth is I believe / I'd rather walk within my brain
