I love this song. I love jamming flute to this song.

Somehow, I never recorded the flute part.

So I used this song as a 'TEMPO TRACK' for Chinatown performances. I would play flute as this song played through the PA system. 

This is a nasty sexy fun song. I'll explain later.

"Love Is Power"

I wrote this song “But I Got” while singing to a bunch of kids at a birthday party.



I ran home across the dirt lot and finished the lyrics and chords to this song.  



Then I ran back and performed some more for the kids.



         “Love Is Power.”

LEVEL 1 = Peace Of Mind is the FIRST ALBUM by American Zen. Written and recorded 1992.  Richard Del Connor “The Hippy Coyote” was led astray by a cute blonde girl from Utah.  This is the MUSICAL AUTOBIOGRAPHY ROCK OPERA of American Zen when Richard became a Mr. Mom to raise his daughter while realizing he’d lost everything he’d built in Los Angeles evaporate.  With no way of working Union Carpentry, or as a cinematographer and lighting director for movies.  No professional photography shoots of local Hollywood rock bands.  No bass session work performing or recording for other artists.  No nightclub performances as a soloist or with his band, Coyote Graveyard.

LEVEL 1 = Peace Of Mind is about how Richard had to throw his UCLA FILM DEGREE in the trash and become a Mr. Mom in Utah to change diapers and care for his daughter 24/7.

I see so many movies of people wishing they could “…just have a normal life and raise children.”  I DIDN’T WANT A NORMAL LIFE.  I wanted to be a rock star.  Actually, I just love songwriting, singing and playing music and performing on stage and making records.  Somehow I’ve never stopped doing that despite rarely being paid.

In this LEVEL 1 I thought my wife was going to keep working for my record company, SHAOLIN RECORDS, just like she was before we got married.  She was my booking agent, and photography assistant on concert shoots.  She promised to be everything I wanted to be and she said she would make me successful.  She agreed that if we had a baby she would work a DAY JOB and I would ALWAYS be able to stay home, take care of our daughter, and work my independent record label SHAOLIN RECORDS.  We had great sex and she called me her “Soul Mate.”  What more can a man ask for?

THE BOOK:  Autumn Flavours by Richard Del Connor was written during the mid 1970s.  It is part of this LEVEL 1 story because Richard trained his wife Michelle to do his printing, color printing, book printing, and she had a computer at work.  So she helped print out and create dozens of hardcover poetry books at Kinkos in Salt Lake City.  Autumn Flavours is the FIRST book published AND SOLD by Richard Del Connor and his book publishing company Shaolin Communications.
