What the Riff Next Gen1970 - April: Crosby Stills Nash & Young “Deja Vu”We covered the self-titled debut album from Crosby, Stills & Nash in episode 137. Deja Vu is considered the second Crosby, Stills & Nash album, but it is actually the first album by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, with Canadian songwriter Neil Young turning the trio into a quartet.
While the album continues to feature the signature harmonies associated with Crosby, Stills & Nash, it has a harder, more rocking edge to it. Some of this is undoubtedly due to the addition of Neil Young to the album, but it also reflects the challenges the group members were facing. Both Stephen Stills and Grah...2025-07-0534 min

Producer Paul A. Rothchild created a more polished sound on this album than her previous solo work or her work with other bands.

It would be her best selling album, peaking at number 1 on the Billboard 200, and being certified quadruple platinum.

Talking With BurritosShark Plus Ocean Equals Scary- TWB88 Recently, Warner Bros. released The Meg as proof that sharks are not bankable unless you make them silly. As frightening a creature as sharks seem, they are never good subjects for a movie. There are very few plots involving sharks in which to script an original film. Depending on the idea, a thrilling shark movie should never be over-conceptualized. Just keep it simple: sharks plus ocean equals scary. Sharks strike fear in the minds of most people who ever watched Jaws. As frightening a creature they are; however, sharks are never good subjects for a movie. There are very few p...2019-03-171h 04

Talking With BurritosBohemian TravestyLooking back on this movie in relation to the title of the film, there should be a more artist approach to this biopic for the band Queen and not the man Freddy Mercury. At face value, Bohemian Rhapsody is a paint-by-the-numbers biopic without the celebratory weight of a meaningful story. They dangle Freddy Mercury on screen just long enough for us to pat at the plight of this man who (may have) suffered secretly with his sexuality but extroverted himself through music, another gift born unto him. To know what empowered Mercury to sing is to know the truth behind t...2018-11-2754 min

We may not like the pain Thanos inflicts on Earth's Mightiest Heroes in Avengers Infinity War but you gotta like the guy; he has conviction and purpose. Sure he's crazier than a raccoon climbing a skyscraper, vicious, and a bit of a psychopath. However, he's also compassionate and empathetic. Violence is just the result of the many obstacles impeding the progress of best-laid plans. Not to applaud his efforts and eventual success but there is reasoning to his...2018-06-251h 05

Talking With BurritosColossal Kong and The Creature FeatureThe 80’s welcomed in a different type of horror movie which steered away from the fear of the atomic 50’s and the boujee-ness of the 1960’s Euporean bloodsuckers. Horror did not necessarily include monsters but monstrous figures committing monstrous acts. In the late 70’s and 80’s, the movie monster replaced cheesy storylines with utter suspense and terror, like, Jaws (1975) and Alien (1979). Long were the days of monsters coming from far outer space to terrorize earth. Now the monsters were next door in your own neighborhood and not so easy to dispose of.

They did not have to suffer or endure the turbulent times of the early 2000’s when Shyamalan made films consistently. People bought tickets wanting that good old feeling from The Sixth Sense and in return received Signs; which we learned alien hate is real, The Village; maybe too much twist in the twist ending; and Lady in the Water, too much talking, no ghosts.

Talking With BurritosCasting the What If ScenarioWhat if is a questionable phrase that implies regret. But what if the decision or act to which the what if applied isn't applicable to just regretting the decision that was made. Well in good ol' Hollywood there were some casting decisions made by the actor and/or the studio that was actually the best decision made at the time. However, in hindsight we all have a slight inclination that the movie or "thing" would have be better if that other actor was casting for the role. ********************************************************************** Share some feedback on this episode http://www.talkingwithburritos.com/contact 2016-05-031h 33
Talking With BurritosPrince Died Years AgoPrince died years ago -- not in the literal sense obviously but in the sense that he grew old in a profession he loved and maintained a status quo without to ever having to defend who he was and why he was great. His songs and attention to the craft of making music make him a modern day warrior amongst the one hit radio wonders, autotun-ers, and would be imitators. For this podcast, I talk about Prince and frame him as an example of who a modern-day warrior exemplifies based on this idea I had for this episode that was pro...2016-04-2637 min
Talking With BurritosScooby Doo Meets The Golden GirlsCrossovers happen when two thing that exists in two different places crossover to the one or the other to form an unlikely relationship that may or may not blend well together. For example, take the Long Island ice tea, it's a crossover mix mashup of tequila, vodka, rum, something known as triple sec or gin -- every spirit you have in the liqueur cabinet-- with a splash of Coke. The recipe is a mess but somehow those ingredients blend together and taste like mamas sweet tea. Yeah, she was a drunk but damn was she fun before she fell off th...2016-04-0549 min

Talking With BurritosZack Snyder's Sucker PuncSo many mixed feelings about this movie, Sucker Punch. Either you like it or you hate it. In this episode, we reached back in time for a discussion we had about an idea of rebooting no-so-good movies or movies with great potential that was poorly executed. The podcast idea never can to fruition because it is basically it's own podcast and really would have misdirected the evolution of the show idea. Nevertheless, this was a good discussion (one of my favorites) and just listening back to this really makes us want to form a show around this id...2016-03-191h 04
Talking With BurritosDeadpool and Other R-rated Comic Book MoviesWith the box office success of comes much fluctuated praise and misleading fervor totting this film as the movie that’s gonna breakdown the conventional norm of comic book movies and change the way Hollywood perceives R rated comic book adaptations. Why now? Because Deadpool has made graphic comic books seemingly profitable now. However, comic book movies have been in existence for a long time. Indeed!

Talking With BurritosHollywood WashHollywood is a wash, washed up, and washed out. Since the golden age of film, Hollywood has been controlled by popularity and who can make studios the most money. So why all the hubbub about actors outside of the race of white not being honored at an event that has shown bias in the past and not exactly pertaining to race. This is all about money. If you have a bankable actor, studios will put forth money to support that person during the promotional phase of the Oscars. They petition by placing ads in Hollywood periodicals and...2016-02-281h 11
Talking With BurritosYou Should Love M. Night Shyamalan's SignsSigns is one of those movies that I can’t understand why people dislike. It is not a horrible film. With a-list actors, Mel Gibson and Jaquoin Phoenix, and great performances from Abigail Breslin and Rory Signs is by in large one of the best movies produced in the early 2k. And although there are flaws — show me a movies without mistakes— you can’t tack up its poor criticism to a lack of inconsideration by the director but we can argue that maybe the director, M. Night Shyamalan, was the reason why audiences were so torn between whether they like...2016-02-231h 02

Talking With BurritosThe Peanuts Movie Hits the MarkMost of us fans of the Peanuts comic strip and CBS animated movies believed The Peanuts Movie would be a horrible big screen adaptation. How could they ruin something so pure? The fear that the 'big machine" would take something some simple and untainted by box office scores and critical maleficium presented the uncertainty and fear that Charlie Brown would again, miss the football. But, wait. Lucy did pull the ball away this time. No, she held it in place and ol' Chuck Brown punted his way into another storytelling medium. So how did the Peanuts movie hit the...2015-11-2351 min

Truthfully, it bothered be a good deal but after some careful consideration I realized that my disappointment did not extend completely from his decision but from my own selfishness to keep him around.

Completely cognitive to your state of being, however, there is nothing you can do. You scream and no one hears. You’re brain tells your arms to move but they remain immobile. This is what sufferers of dream paralysis experience when they lay down for bed, the fear of sleep. Dreams so lucid they are real. Dreams so real they leave very little hope for an optimistic reality. Ev...2015-11-0658 min
