Utah - Phase 1 |
|
|
Author: The Hippy Coyote The lyrics to most of Coyote's songs are poetry worth reading without the music. Bizarre, creative, and insightful -- from Coyote's unique ability of seeing / living / experiencing / interpreting life. This poetry book, Utah - Phase 1, was the precursor of what would become the 8 LEVELS of American Zen's Buddhist Journey. This is a scanned copy of Coyote's ORIGINAL draft with his own editorial notes about each poem handwritten on the bottom of each page. "A Long Way Home" depicts Coyote's desire to return to California. "Free The Change" criticizes the Mormon robotic mind. "Simple Lady" finds Coyote remembering peaceful moments in his life to escape his discomforts. This path of enlightenment includes both the LEVEL 1 and the LEVEL 2 albums of American Zen, America's first Buddhist rock band. It's not nirvana, but Coyote shows some significant spiritual growth from the poems in the beginning of the book, compared to those at the end. |

Autumn Flavours |
|
RELEASE DATE: Sep 1 , 2007 |
Author: The Hippy Coyote Coyote graduated High School in St. John's, Newfoundland. There, on that remote arctic island, they spell and speak the olde British tongue. Flavors is spelled, "flavours." Colors is spelled, "colours..." It's how he wrote it when he wrote it. We modernized the name of the book for the website domain name of: This poetry book becomes the platform for Coyote's spiritual development. Mental explorations, murderers of the day, and some autobiographical tales combine to create a dark, broody, book. |

Level 1 = Peace Of Mind |
|
|
Composer: The Coyote Recorded in Utah, Coyote's bandmates made two pilgrimages to help him complete this 4-track masterpiece. "We had to rely on performances," explains bassist Tom. "It was a challenge to record 4-track. We had to record our vocals as we played our instruments." Tom plays a 1977 analog synthesizer for his bass when he plays the Vox organ. American Zen's quest for enlightenment is also their professional and artistic challenge. Let's see how spiritual growth looks!' "Is it like a fungus?" |

American Zen |
|
|
DJ - Host: The Coyote These are the first 20 podcasts recorded by The Coyote of American Zen. The spiritual evolution of American Zen starts here. Reading from the webpages of American Zen's OFFICIAL WEBSITE, Coyote READS THE WEBSTORIES he wrote and illustrated with photos from his childhood. (Ah, how cute.) This is even better than reading the webpages all by yourself because Coyote explains the stories and adds his humor and love for life. These podcasts are mp4 so we could include slide show with links to each of the webpages that Coyote is reading from. Too cool! |

Level 2 = Christ Killer |
|
|
Composer: The Coiyote Recorded in Utah, the 4-track master was brought back to California when Coyote fled the beehive state. Completed in early 2007, this album shows an evolution in Coyote's flute playing. Check out "God Will Protect," "Great Salt Lake," and the title song, "Christ Killer," which has a very bizarre flute melody. This album criticizes the Mormon religion, the Church of Latter Day Saints by depicting their religious world in songs and lyrics. "Land Of Mediocrity," is hauntingly lovely and accurate. |
