AMG REVIEW: With Wayne Henderson of Crusaders fame handling the
production, Caldera showed a great deal of promise on its self-titled
1976 debut album. The Latin jazz-fusion unit isn't afraid to take
chances on such imaginative pieces as Jorge Strunz's "El Juguete" and
Eduardo del Barrio's "Exaltation" - chances that pay off in a major
way. Though one can tell that Caldera's members were well aware of
such explorers as Return to Forever, Weather Report, and the
Mahavishnu Orchestra, it's also clear that they were major Earth,
Wind & Fire fans and had absorbed a wide variety of Latin music.
Strunz and del Barrio were hardly the only fusionists who
incorporated Latin rhythms in the 1970s - Chick Corea, George Duke,
Wayne Shorter, Al DiMeola, and Joe Zawinul were all well aware of the
musical innovations of Latinos, but Caldera was unique in the sense
that the band represented a real melting pot of Latinos bringing
different ideas to the table. And on this LP, those ideas work
magnificently. - Alex Henderson
