From the mind of Rich Hopkins, co-founder and guitarist of the Sidewinders/Sand Rubies, one of Arizona’s most accomplished rock‘n’roll exports, comes The Whole Enchilada: The History of Desert Rock, Tucson, Arizona 1978-1994
Tucson's seasoned cowboy stoners and alienated young punk rockers have created their own distinct desert-tinged sounds. The Whole Enchilada documentary explores the scene's roots and philosophy through interviews, images and the music itself, focusing on 1978-1994 and inspired by a compilation project of the same name curated by Sand Rubies guitarist Rich Hopkins.
The Whole Enchilada is a short documentary produced by Sand Rubies� guitarist Rich Hopkins and directed by Maggie Smith which explores the roots of Tucson�s own desert rock music. Exclusive interviews with seasoned country rockers like Bob Meighan and George Hawke are interspersed with Tucson alt-rock legends like Dan Stuart (Green on Red), Billy Sedlmayr, and Howe Gelb (Giant Sand). Add in never-before-seen footage from legendary The Pills, wild child Suzie Caruze and Naked Prey and you begin to get a feel for this fun and original short documentary film.
