Hello,
Not to keep detracting from the subject but yes, I did pick up the Pufnstuf DVD box set. Now if they could only release Pufnstuf the movie on DVD I would be very happy (Hello Universal!). Mama Cass was great in that. Anyways, the Burbujas picture that was posted is for the original vinyl release from 1978 or 79. The CD that was recently released is not a re-issue of any of the albums but more of a compilation from several different late 70s early 80s Esquivel-made LPs. I just listened to it a second time. Some surprisingly good music behind some sometimes-anoying, but always odd vocals. Very high production standards though. There are a number of outstanding Esquivel pieces. I believe all the songs are Esquivel except for the first track which is the title theme to the new remake of the show. This is the first and only time any of this Esquivel music has been released. I'll trade a copy for the compilations CDs that are out of print that combined several covers of exotic songs such as Caravan and Quiet Village (I believe)...
And since the Burbujas CD is unavailable in the US and the Exotica CD(s) are out of print... there is no guilt to be had... :)
