“Scorpion Resurrection” was written February 2013 by Richard Del Connor, "The Hippy Coyote" of American Zen for the completed screenplay, Kung Fu Cowboy Rock & Roll Movie 1. Richard explained to the Kulak’s Woodshed M.C. before his performance that he hopes this song will win an Oscar for ‘Best Song in a Movie.’ “Scorpion Resurrection” is track #3 on the End of the Line album by American Zen and tells the story of his Las Vegas adventure that led him back to his San Diego homeland. Richard has been living out of his 1996 forest green Toyota Tacoma truck with a purple fiberglass shell since he left his family in Montrose, California to start a Kung Fu and Tai Chi school in Las Vegas, Christmas 2011. "We're not homeless we have cars," sings Coyote. "I need a financial injection--to complete my scorpion resurrection." The album was recorded inside his “Tacoma Studios” with Richard pretending to be all four members of American Zen, "America's first Buddhist rock band™." Recorded using a Zoom-4Hn 4-track digital recorder, (a Christmas gift from one of his Kung Fu students), this album sounds like the first albums of Led Zeppelin and Cream with Coyote performing two original instrumental flute songs similar to “Bouree” by Jethro Tull.
Richard, known as "Kung Fu Cowboy" to his fellow stagehands, was stung in the neck by a tan scorpion October 2012 while working a Brad Paisley concert at the Cricket Amphitheater near the Mexican border. Two weeks prior to this, Richard had signed a “Life Option Agreement” with Scott Karahadian to write the Kung Fu Cowboy Rock & Roll Movie 1 screenplay based upon his life. Unable to work or do Kung Fu, swollen Richard became a writing partner and reshaped his true life story to now include ghosts jumping out of his body to do his Kung Fu fighting for him and rescue his children.
As “Buddha Zhen,” Richard teaches Shaolin Kung Fu weapons using the same traditional martial arts dances that have been passed down from monk to monk for 1,000 years. Founder of three Kung Fu school systems: Shaolin Chi Mantis Traditional Buddhist Gongfu, Tai Chi Youth, and Buddha Kung Fu; Richard is currently teaching at North Hollywood Park in North Hollywood, California. David Carradines’s daughter, Calista Carradine, has been a student of Buddha Kung Fu for over a year at this location. The song, "Kung Fu Cowboy 2" on the End of the Line album tells about his teaching practices and Kung Fu lifestyle.
