"Scorpion Resurrection" of The Hippy Coyote
Dance Songs of the Homeless
Recorded in Coyote's truck, (where he's been living past couple years).
Short Descriptions:
American Zen records the most "danceable rock songs" ever. With two guitarists, bass and drums, The Hippy Coyote returns to his old school heroes of The Beatles, Blue Cheer, The Rolling Stones and Jimi Hendrix to create a new classic rock album.
11 rock songs tell the story of Coyote's "nomadic" journey since Christmas 2011 when he left his kids to start a Shaolin Kung Fu school in Las Vegas.
End of the Line music album by American Zen tells the musical autobiographical story of The Hippy Coyote from the time he divorced his family in 2011 to the end of 2013. Coyote recorded this album in his truck where he's been living the past couple years. This is Coyote's first album without an acoustic guitar and it sounds powerful as he takes on the musical alter-egoes of his American Zen bandmates.
End of the Line music album by American Zen is the first album of American Zen without any acoustic guitar. 11 songs tell the story of The Hippy Coyote, known currently as "Kung Fu Cowboy." Songs depict homeless life and his upcoming movie, KUNG FU COWBOY ROCK & ROLL MOVIE 1, starring Coyote with 21 songs of his in the soundtrack.
Long Description: (Shaolin Records product page)
End Of The Line follows the 2012 release of Coyote Radio Tujunga by THC The Hippy Coyote and the last released album by American Zen, LEVEL 4 = Kung Fu Cowboy PART 1: King Solomon's Temple in 2010. Both of these previous albums, also written by Coyote, are based upon the life events of T.H.Coyote, known mostly as "Kung Fu Cowboy" since 2012. End Of The Line is a musical autobiography of Coyote since he became "nomadic" in 2011.
Starting with the song, "Use Me," Coyote tells how he became homeless and stranded in Las Vegas. The next song, "High School Reunion," was written as Coyote reentered the town of his birth for his 40-Year High School Reunion.
Coyote continues to perform all the instruments under the pseudonyms of his music alter-egoes; Steve Hixon on drums, Tom Calder on bass, and Rory G on electric guitar.
The songs were written on the tailgate of his truck, and in February and March of 2014, Coyote recorded all 11 songs in his truck. The drums had to be recorded in his daughter's living room while his truck was getting a new head gasket. The final guitar playing through his vintage 1978 Marshall amp was recorded with the flutes in an empty apartment in Van Nuys where Coyote could turn his amp up to "11." The bass, vocals and rhythm guitar tracks were recorded in Coyote's Toyota Tacoma using his sleeping bag for insulation... We now refer to the truck as, "Tacoma Studios."
Coyote originally intended this to be a solo record of his recent solo performances on electric guitar and flute. "It just made sense to keep going," explains Coyote. "Opportunities just kept opening up and one of my Kung Fu students bought me the Zoom 4-track recorder for Christmas. The album just kept growing--with a life of its own."
End Of The Line is the 5th album release of American Zen. With the return to 4-track recording, this album has a simlar rock honesty as the LEVEL 1 = Peace of Mind album by American Zen.
"This album represents my final departure from folk rock," says Coyote. "Since 1994 I've been striving to revitalize or bring back folk rock music. It didn't work. As you can see the world has chosen bombs, bullets, rap cussing and digital music from kids who can't play a single instrument. Folk rock is dead, and I couldn't resurrect it."
Coyote was the host DJ of the Folk Rock Podcast of Shaolin Records for several years. "I'm a rocker now," states our hippie dog. "I will never play an acoustic guitar again."
That's okay. Coyote shreds on guitar. End Of The Line will be the album used by future generations of guitar players to learn their rock riffs and form their own 4-piece rock bands all over the world. "This album will be used for Rock Hero," states Scott Karahadian confidently.
End Of The Line album, released June 2014, will also be promoted and marketed as Coyote releases and promotes several other projects. Supersoul 13 is the spiritual journal written by Coyote in 2013 while completeing the End of the Line album. This book provides details of the album being written, and any fan of the album will want this book. Supersoul 13 is being released exclusively through amazon.com.
Coyote is a Tai Chi and Shaolin Kung Fu master teaching under the name, Buddha Zhen or Buddha Z . As founder of several Kung Fu schools, including the Tai Chi Youth nonprofit education organization, Coyote has become famous as the "Kung Fu Cowboy." Already featured in Kung Fu Masters Magazine, Coyote will star in the movie written about him, Kung Fu Cowboy Rock & Roll Movie 1 , currently in production as this album is released.
The song, "Kung Fu Cowboy 2," was written with phrases and lyrics that only a Kung Fu practitioner would know: "Rooted to the Earth in a horse stance," "Don't fight--we play around," "Trees are my punching bags," and "Qigong and a bong--for energy!" portraying the modern Kung Fu hero as a person who enjoys life as much as possible--in a healthy way.
So, during his three years of being homeless, Coyote has been stung by a scorpion in the neck, released 19 books in Kindle format, written and recorded the End of the Line album, written and published Supersoul 13 book, written the screenplay for Kung Fu Cowboy Rock & Roll Movie,1, and worked as a stageheand wihile teaching Tai Chi and Shaolin Kung Fu private lessons. Coyote has released more products while sleeping in his truck for the past 3 years than Coyote has released in the previous 30 years of sleeping in nice warm houses.
"Hey! That doesn't mean that I'm better off homeless! I'm just not having to cook, clean, change diapers and help with homework every day. I've been on my own since Christmas 2011. It's great having more time to write, record, and play music, BUT I NEED MY STUDIO BACK! I need a home! I need a kitchen..."
The bed of Coyote's truck is 6' long. Since Coyote is 6'1" in height, sleeping has been restricted these past 3 years. Hopefully he hasn't grown shorter...
So the world's new rock star is The Hippy Coyote, the Kung Fu Cowboy of American Zen, "America's first Buddhist rock band™."
This is probably the first time in history that a 60-year old homeless hippie emerged onto the radio and record charts to become a pop star. Baby boomer resurrection? Maybe. Certainly a scorpion resurrection.
Coyote recorded his first album in 1974. So this "overnight success" is the result of 40 years dedicated to a dream... that even his parents, brothers, and relatives discouraged. This album End of the Line, will prove to every listener that The Hippy Coyote is a wizard--a true star. (It also proves that relatives can lead you astray.)
