Best Brakes w/0 canti bosses?

Hello,

I have a 90' trek 420 and would like to do some touring with it. Currently the bike is in excellent shape with a very generous range of gearing. My questions is about appropriate brakes for loaded touring. The current brakes are shimano blaze calipers which work well for just riding and commuting. Are canti brakes really the best and only choice? I can always get a new fork and have bosses welded on to the rear triangle but would rather not.

Suggestions please?
