But Caldera continued to be obscure, despite providing an adventurous, captivating mixture of jazz, funk, rock, and Latin music. True to form, the writing is excellent on this album: One cannot accuse Caldera's members of weak writing on the South American-influenced \"Rain Forest,\" the samba-minded \"Celebration,\" the flamenco-influenced \"Brujerías,\" or the Carlos Santana-ish opener, \"To Capture the Moon.\" For Caldera, the term \"Latin music\" meant a variety of things -- everything from Spanish flamenco and Afro-Cuban salsa to Brazilian samba and Andean music -- and on this LP, all of those things successfully interact with jazz, funk, and rock. Like Caldera's three previous Capitol albums, Dreamer went out of print after the band's breakup and has yet to be reissued on CD.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eORIGIN : Japan\u003cbr\u003eLABEL :  Capitol Records – ECS-81242\u003cbr\u003eCONDITION OF COVER \u0026amp; INSERT : EX+\u003cbr\u003eCONDITION OF RECORD : EX+\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eRECORD GRADING DEFINITIONS\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eMINT: Never opened, still in original shrink wrap.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eNM: Opened, appears unplayed.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eEX: A few very light surface hair-line marks with no major deterioration to the sound quality.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eVG: A few light scratches and\/or scuffs creating audible background noise.
