Brentwood Coyote 1984Coyote 1978 to 1984

During the 1970s, Coyote was known as Richard Del Connor and his band name was, Lotus. In 1975, Coyote wrote his first rock opera, UNDERGROUND based upon his novel, , Sid's Place.

Some of these songs were performed live with cover songs by Aerosmith, Mountain, Cream, Hendrix, and The Beatles.

So with a few additions, Coyote's bands, that he created, led, and wrote the music for was LOTUS from 1970 to 1977. Coyote was a session bass player in many bands after moving to Los Angeles. Coyote's bands that he led and fronted were mostly advertised as, THE RICH. The rock opera, COYOTE IN A GRAVEYARD, became so popular, that news ads and flyers didn't even include the band name, THE RICH, after 1985. The rock opera was just billed as: "Coyote In A Graveyard."
