Bruce Candelaria was the easiest drummer for Coyote to play and perform with. They were good friends, room mates, and never argued or disagreed with each other. I guess that makes them 'best friends.' Coyote was broken-hearted when Bruce enlisted for the Coast Guard and quit the music business. Bruce came from a jazz background but idolized John Bonham of Led Zeppelin.This is the same Vistalite Ludwig drum set that Led Zeppelin recorded and performed with.
"Too Much Too Soon" was a song loved by other Los Angeles musicians because of its unique and creative musicianship and arrangement. Perhaps we can get Bruce into a recording studio to record this song some day.
This song is about Julie of the THE LOVE BOAT television series. While Coyote was working in the prison he became friends with the cocaine dealer of the movie studios who sold the coke to Julie. This ex-dealer told Coyote stories that inspired this song.

During the 1980s cocaine was everywhere. Really. Hard to believe now, 25 years later. People snorted $100 to $200 worth of it per day. Some people could afford it. That’s what this song is about.
