Part of the folk era along with Peter, Paul and Mary and others. He also had a popular hit with Lemon Tree. He had a role in the movie, The Dirty Dozen, which is one of those fun guilty pleasure movies to watch every few years. RIP, Mister Lopez.

Gibson Guitars must have thought pretty highly of him as he had his own signature Gibson Trini Lopez model .

IIRC Gibson made 2 Trini signature models.
The well known ES335 body style version and a Custom.
Beg your pardon in case that my memories fool me.
