American Zen Buddhist Rock Podcast L1-18
http://www.coyoteradio.net/index.php?post_id=186155

PODCAST #18 of 20 podcasts for CD: Level 1 = Peace Of Mind by American Zen.

Featured Music:
"You've Been Sold" from the CD, LEVEL 1 = Peace Of Mind (awesome SLIDE GUITAR by Rory G on his Pleasant Guitar from his dad). Sounds like Mick Abrahams and Blodwyn Pig.
"I Want To Laugh #2" from the LEVEL 2 = Christ Killer cd (the Utah 4-track mix featuring Rory G on SLIDE GUITAR again). Rory should get an award for his slide guitar work on this song. Rory thanks both Johnny Winter and Rory Gallagher for influences.
"Free The Change" from the cd, LEVEL 1 = Peace Of Mind (features Rory burning on LEAD GUITAR solos). Sounds like Cream or Mountain. Remember that song, "Nantucket Sleighride" by Felix Pappalardi?

It appears this episode FEATURES RORY G on electric lead guitar, and slide guitar. Rory says he's retiring from live stage performing. Fortunately, Rory loves to record.

Special thanks to all the magazines and album reviewers who contributed or wrote these reviews in their magazines or website magazines.

Join us for a journey of the body, an odyssey of the mind, and a discovery of the soul.

Sneak preview of song from upcoming Level 2 = Christ Killer CD by American Zen,
"Can't Hold Me Down."
