Coyote announces that Shaolin Records is advertising for Folk Rock bands to be featured in these Folk Rock Podcasts using the EPKs and artists of SonicBids.com.

Since the first Folk Rock Podcast featured songs from American Zen's first album, and podcast 2 featured songs from the second album, Coyote played some rough mixes from their upcoming third album, LEVEL 3 = I Want You To Love Me.

Featured songs:
"From Within" (Physical Graphitti by Led Zeppelin could've included this song.)
"All Alone"   (Beach Boys look out!)

Coyote reads from his Kung Fu notebook, TAI CHI BEGINNER by Master Zhen, to share some Daoism he learned in Buddha Kung Fu classes this week.

Featured songs:
"Christ Killer" from American Zen's 2nd CD, Christ Killer. Similar to the Aqualung album by Jethro Tull. Includes great solos from Tom Calder on Plush bass, Rory G playing BACKWARDS electric guitar and Coyote's kick-ass flute.

Coyote explains how he wants to promote a new folk rock band each week and add them to www.CALIFORNIAfolkROCK.com

Featured songs:
"Great Salt Lake"   from American Zen's 2nd CD, Level 2 = Christ Killer. (Sounds like a romantic Ian Anderson of Jethro Tull.) Composer: The Hippy Coyote. Produced by Richard Connor for Shaolin Records.
"Whose Heaven Is This?" from American Zen's 1st CD, Level 1 = Peace Of Mind. (Ukulele by Rory G leads this wild song that sounds like Elvis Costello on caffeine.)
