Merry Christmas

Christmas is always different.

Christmas is a strange reflection of where your life is at.

That's why so many depressed people want to commit suicide during Christmas. I think the worst of your life is amplified during Christmas.

But that's also why so many happy people love Christmas. It amplifies the best of your life also.

Christmas is a chance to give what you have and share who you are.

People who don't like Christmas are either greedy or disappointed in themselves.

So we hope you are VERY MERRY! (Which would mean you like yourself...)

Love to all and even if you are a depressed, unhappy, selfish, person who lacks compassion towards others..."Merry Christmas."

I'm so desperate to get any studio time, which I have no money for, that this is the best I can do. We haven't made much progress yet, but we're starting a new direction for the COYOTE RADIO TUJUNGA album with these overdubs. I was going to just make it a LIVE album.

About American Zen:
American Zen is led by The Coyote who fronts the band on flute and acoustic guitar. Coyote is a renaissance man who writes all the music, lyrics, and poetry. Coyote abandoned his San Diego and Los Angeles bandmates to pursue a promise of success from a cute blonde girl from Utah in 1991. With promises and a heart broken, Coyote is stuck in Salt Lake City, Utah, teaching Yang Tai Chi and Shaolin Kung Fu to Mormons. The Mormons are intolerant of "gentiles" and "nonMormons," and especially long haired Buddhist Hippie Californians. The religious, personal, and business conflicts with the Mormons resulted in Coyote creating his own sect of Zen Buddhism, Shaolin Zen in 1994. The LEVEL 1 = PEACE OF MIND album cover was shot by Ed Animal for the L.A.Rock Review Magazine.
