Kung Fu Cowboy & A Cat Named Bear

The KUNG FU COWBOY "new adventures" began in 2014 with the completion of the LEVEL 8 = MEMORIAL DAY ALBUM album by American Zen. During 2013 while working as a nomadic stagehand from Las Vegas to San Diego... I stumbled onto the book, Bhagavad Gita, while stopping at their Hindu Temple in Venice Beach for a free dinner. The book changed my life and perspectives of spirituality in many ways. I hope you will enjoy shaking up your spiritual world with these concepts and new ideas to consider. I will continue reading the book. Actually, I just finished reading the entire book for an AUDIOBOOK I will release in 2024. But these podcasts will allow more explanations and stories...

Kung Fu Cowboy has been preparing his next album being produced by Richard Del Connor (his legal name). The last steps to prepare for this album were to acquire TROMBONE SOFTWARE for the album. I became known as the “Kung Fu Cowboy” during the 1980s because I always wore a cowboy hat and people knew I studied or practiced my Kung Fu on a daily basis. Billy Cobham, REO Speedwagon, Smokey Robinson and many other artists would see Richard practicing between takes on the movie sets instead of standing around or eating bagels… From 1984 to 1988 Richard, who was mostly known as “The Coyote,” specialized in rock concert photography because he enjoyed the music and hung out with the artists backstage at the concerts. “Rocktography by The Coyote” were the ads he placed in newspapers or used as photography bylines. At rock ’n’ roll concerts and punk rock concerts he was the only person in the entire audience wearing a cowboy hat. He also used this technique to prevent people from standing close behind him as he blocked their view standing at 6’ 1” tall PLUS the cowboy hat. “People didn’t push or bother me when I was shooting partly because of my cowboy hat,” Coyote explained. Shaolin Records is now armed with 3 trombone programs to create our Shaolin Records 9-piece Scorpion Orchestra to record this debut album of Kung Fu Cowboy. Hopefully the next podcast will include our first efforts in creating this revolutionary blues rock band. The song “Kung Fu Cowboy 2” is ready for the trombones. The song “What Do We Have Now?” was added after KFC got excited about it at the end of the podcast. Because he’d also mentioned in the podcast talking about the NEW RELEASE of www.ScorpionResurrection.com — the “House of Rejection” song is added to the ending also.

Kung Fu Cowboy starts the podcast being harassed by “A Cat Named Bear.” Bear seems to enjoy interrupting KFC when he’s in the VoiceOver recording studio of Shaolin Records. This walk-in closet is where Richard Del Connor has been producing audiobooks this past year. Kung Fu Cowboy gives in to Bear, picks him up and he starts purring. So Kung Fu Cowboy puts him on his shoulders and takes a picture in the closet recording studio himself and Bear before taking him into the kitchen for a late night snack. (After 10pm). Kung Fu Cowboy talks about his Catholic upbringing and parents who refuse to talk about his artistic career in any manner. Neither of his parents have ever read his books, listened to his albums or music, or encouraged him to be an artist… ever. They still don’t. “I was born into the wrong family,” laments our senior cowboy. Kung Fu Cowboy begins reading his book, Supersoul 13 by Buddha Z, (another alias or pen name he uses). Kung Fu Cowboy reads the “Table Of Contents” which contains very interesting topics that KFC says he’s looking forward to learning about. Using an outline of the podcast, KFC is surprised to see the chosen song for today’s podcast is, “I’m Certain I’m Not Sure,” from the American Zen album, LEVEL 4 = Kung Fu Cowboy PART 2: 3rd Degree Master Mason. This album has yet to be released although it was recorded at the same time LEVEL 4 = Kung Fu Cowboy PART 1: King Solomon’s Temple was recorded. These two albums comprise the 36-song album that was split in two, because this was too much music to fit onto a CD disk. Kung Fu Cowboy PART 2: 3rd Degree Master Mason album is almost complete. It needs some flute solos and perhaps a little percussion. The vocals are all cut. Shaolin Records has hoped to release this album since 2012...

"Black Hills Ride" is performed in my Tacoma truck which I used to refer to as "Tacoma Studios" of Shaolin Records. I recorded many many songs in my car during those years of... travelling with my cat Bear. "Black Hills Ride" is about my Hanblechia "Vision Quest" to the Rosebud Reservation of the Lakota Sioux. I was invited by the Chief and had amazing experiences, visions, and a conversation with God. I will publish the book someday. This song was released on the LEVEL 7 = End Of The Line album by American Zen. Here's a LINK to the song, "Black Hills Ride" being performed solo on my flute. https://youtu.be/Aawq_NKhUHc Copyright 2014-2021 Shaolin Records. All rights reserved.

"Black Hills Ride" is from the LEVEL 7 = End of the Line album by American Zen. This song was a favorite when I performed it solo at nightclubs, poetry readings or wandering around North Hollywood. There are two versions of the song on this podcast. FIRSTLY: is the album recording. But I couldn't trash this LIVE version I recorded in my car a year ago when I was homeless... so it's on here also. Get the album: END OF THE LINE by American Zen. If you go to Bandcamp.com there's a bunch of lyric sheets with the song chords and a page for each song that tells the stories. This album, like all the American Zen albums was a rock opera story of my homeless life. All the songs were written in 2013 and 2014 when I was living in my Tacoma truck with my cat, Bear. There's a music video of this song, "Black Hills Ride" at YouTube.com. I created the video a month a so after moving up here with the Joshua Trees in the high desert above Los Angeles. END OF THE LINE album at Bandcamp.com

Kung Fu Cowboy talks about the Supersoul book available at Amazon.com and ShaolinCommunications.com. The SuperSoul book was written after Coyote first moved to Los Angeles to make his Kung Fu Cowboy movie. KFC also shares his iPod blasting “Zombie Beethoven,” a song he wrote and performed with zombies. Copyright 2019 Shaolin Records.

Kung fu Cowboy tell stories about getting stung in the neck while working as a stagehand for Brad Paisley. Kung fu Cowboy worked a couple years as a stage and traveling around the south west working concert and corporate events at the Trump golf course. Bear is going to be in Kung Fu Cowboy Rock ‘n’ Roll Movie 1. So help us make the movie so Bear can get his big part. KFC also talked about the book Supersoul 13 and explains what a supersoul is according to the Vedic religion of 4000 years ago. The end of the show is something new: he put the iPhone near his JBL speaker tube and then performed his flute from a few feet away. We’ll see if we can improve it for next time.

Kung Fu Cowboy jumps around telling stories of the beginning of his stage hand career and hanging out with the people from India several years ago. KFC also tells about the very beginning and launch of the Kung Fu Cowboy movie series.

Kung Fu Cowboy and his cat named Bear are excited to be here after a couple years of traveling around on vacation.
