Got an orchestra?

The album, COYOTE RADIO TUJUNGA, by THC The Hippy Coyote

was recorded live in 2003 by Coyote in his Tujunga home studio. This rare opportunity for an orchestra to merge with the rock world also enables each orchestra or ensemble to be a unique performance along with the album, Coyote Radio Tujunga played through the P.A. system as if Coyote was onstage with you. Arrangements available starting 2018.

February 4th, 2013, Coyote's birthday, was the release date of the album, Coyote Radio Tujunga by THC The Hippy Coyote.

Coyote, a Mr. Mom from 1991 to 2011, was singing his son to sleep every afternoon in their Tujunga home from 2001 to 2005, performing on his Alvarez dreadnought 12-string acoustic guitar. He was also rehearsing for the Coyote Radio television shows being produced by Adelphia and Roadrunner Cable Television. So Shaolin Records started recording these solo rehearsals and ended up with a collection of awesome performances by The Hippy Coyote.

These songs and others of the years 2002 to 2005 were featured in live television shows produced by Shaolin Pictures entitled Coyote Radio 1, Coyote Radio 2...Coyote Radio 9. Our camerapersons were Kung Fu students who volunteered to help make this series of a dozen television shows. All show featuring The Hippy Coyote performing these songs in a unique style were solo performances, wearing his leather cowboy hat, with a black background, without any talking between songs. No dialogue, mostly sitting down, with his cowboy hat shadowing his face like a Cowboy Zorro. With only a black background acoustic guitar and a couple of microphones, Coyote performed for the Coyote Radio TV series shows aired over Los Angeles cable networks.

There were a couple exceptions to these solo performances because his son, Rory O'Connor, just had to run up on stage and sing with dad from time to time. The last of the Coyote Radio series featured "The Coyote Clan," consisting of Daddy Coyote on acoustic guitar, Rory OConnor on snare drum wearing dad's cowboy hat with extra foam inside, and Caitlin O'Connor on flute, with all three singing rock songs written by Richard Del Connor, The Hippy Coyote.

In 2009, Coyote's 1972 Alvarez 12-string guitar was stolen. Coyote vowed to never play acoustic guitar in memory and honor of his lost guitar--his best friend since 1973. Even the punk rock songs of The Rich, and the Coyote In A Graveyard rock opera were written on that acoustic guitar.

Enjoy what will be the last album of acoustic guitar ever to be performed by The Hippy Coyote of American Zen.
