lol does anyone else have this record with "Simon and Garfunkel's Greatest Hits" labels on the A and B side? It's pretty funny knowing that Santana's "Caravanserai" is playing from it. I own this version as well.

Hey guys i need help. I have a copy of this masterpiece but i am troubled because i can't find which copy is. It has the red labels as seen in the pics and is exactly like the copy Santana - Caravanserai but the barcode and identifiers are exactly the same with these of copy Santana - Caravanserai. Does anyone have any idea which copy i have?

A kick-ass Latin rock record that borders between the progressive, the Antillean, and the exotic. It's hard to describe this one but considering that it came out a year after Santana III, it's an impressive piece. Call me crazy but the beat heard in "Stone Flower" sounds alot like reggaeton

A departure from his previous albums, "Caravanerai" is a more laid back, jazzy, cerebral, affair, culminating in possibly his best ever piece of music "Every Step of The Way".

I love this album! It is easily Carlos' best work. I believe it shows the music he really wanted to make; without major production company input. My favorite song is probably Just in Time to See the Sun. It's such a jamming tune. The rest of the album is just as good as well. This is, in my opinion, one of the greatest albums of all time.
I would like to know how to tell the weight of the record I have. It is the original American Columbia release. I would like to know if it is the 180g audiophile version.
