shaolinINTERACTIVE = Kung Fu of Kung Fu Cowboy
Coyote has cut his hair, lost his acoustic guitar and retired from live concert performances.
Coyote announced his retirement on April Fool’s Day, 2010.
After several haircuts, he ended up shaving his head. This is the third time that Coyote has hacked off his hair. The first time was in 1997 to be presented with the Patriarch Sashes of both Tai Chi Youth and the Shaolin Chi Mantis traditional Buddhist Gongfu School.
The second time was in 2004, when Coyote was hired to be a Buddhist Monk on a television reality show.
But this, the third head shaving, was done because Coyote was pursuing a Pinkerton security guard job.
After a month of discontent, Coyote has accepted his loss of hair and found a rebirth in his Buddha Kung Fu school. With the approaching videos of shaolinDIGITAL.com, Coyote, a.k.a. Buddha Zhen, is ready to shoot.

2. - - BUDDHA KUNG FU ROCKS! - -
Coyote Performs Chinese Double Sabers Onstage
Buddha Kung Fu was asked to perform the COUNTRY FAIR at CV Park this year. Our students needed a bigger stage with our new choreographed weapons rountines. So, we performed on the grass, in front of the stage.
Jessica and Shawn battled their "Fire And Water" staff routine, as seen on the beginnings of the KUNG FU tv series starring David Carradine.
After some other students performed Chinese Kung Fu Forms, including the "Masonic Kung Fu" Form, Lian Bu (Ling Po), Buddha Zhen finished the show with a double broadsword performance of the, "Rolling Dragons," Shaolin weapon Form handed down to him through the Chinese Jing Mo Association.
Surprisingly, it was a crowd of teenage girls who flocked around Buddha Zhen wanting to check out his swords backstage.

3. -- FOLK ROCK PODCAST of SHAOLIN RECORDS --
2010 Folk Rock Podcast of Shaolin Records
I have been trying to relaunch FOLK ROCK music since 1998. I don't think it's worked very well.
I have tried to launch an annual FOLK ROCK TOUR OF SHAOLIN RECORDS every year--it hasn't happened.
Perhaps FOLK ROCK only existed once in history, for one decade, then disappeared forever.
Since then, people have combined acoustic guitars and electric guitars...but it's either COUNTRY music or ROCK music with an acoustic guitar thrown in for flavor.
FOLK ROCK appears to have been SOCIAL ROCK. It had a cultural purpose and humanistic intention. There is and will always be current artists expressing current issues...but it doesn't seem to mature into FOLK ROCK. Now it is called, "ACOUSTIC," music.
If the ACOUSTIC music has an edge to it, it is called, "ALTERNATIVE" music, or, "ALTERNATIVE ROCK" music, or, "ALT ROCK," or...
There are also classifications for, PSYCHEDELIC ROCK, and RETRO music, and many others.
American Zen crosses many musical boundaries and produces music in many music genres. Richard Del Connor, The Hippy Coyote, has been writing music since 1970, and even during his early compositions during the 1970s, was accused of not fitting into any one musical format or genre.

American Zen Buddhist Rock PODCAST
NEWEST podcast: Still last year's podcast
I had to stop many activities to get this new album completed by American Zen.
If you've been following my life story, my current events, you know I've been homeless this past year and without home utilities and internet...
It seemed impossible to complete this year, but I did it: LEVEL 4 = KUNG FU COWBOY PART 1: KING SOLOMON'S TEMPLE is released.
I hope it inspires you.

KUNG FU COWBOY ORIGINAL DRAFT book
http://www.shaolinRECORDS.com/RecordStore-R/americanZenLevel4Orig.html
This could be the FINAL DRAFT.
I'm not motivated to finish now. I've started a new book. I've started a new screenplay. I'm producing the shaolinINTERACTIVE videos, and I've got live footage of Coyote performing the last couple years for music videos...
So, if you're waiting for the FINAL DRAFT, stop waiting. Enjoy my handwritten book.
