Coyote Radio TV is the psychedelic rock opera world of Richard Del Connor. During the counterculture years of the sixties, Richard was performing in rock bands that performed for birthday parties and after school events. As guitarist-vocalist Richard sang and played the songs of The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Eric Burden & The Animals, and Quicksilver Messenger Service. During the 1970s Richard sang and performed heavy rock songs from Montrose, Mountain, The Cream, Rory Gallagher, Johnny Winter, Pink Floyd and The Doors.
By 1980 Richard Del Connor had named his band THE RICH. Now fronting the trio as a singing bassist they only performed songs written by Richard Del Connor or members of his band, The Rich.
During all these years of performing from 1972 to 1978, Richard’s songwriting developed as a form of self-help therapy. His songs mostly represented the difficulties of his life or falling in love moments except for his ROCK OPERAS. Then he started filling in the spaces of his fictional rock operas with his personal songs and 3-dimensional musical stories emerged with the music expressing the emotions and the lyrics carrying the events of the rock opera stories.
Coyote Radio TV represents the television station Richard Del Connor “The Coyote” or “The Hippy Coyote” has always imagined as he fantasizes the stories and sequences in his mind while listening to his music. Richard is another step closer with this website, CoyoteRadio.TV, to sharing his visions and enlightenments and person moments: both good and bad. Richard believes that his attitudes in dealing with these difficulties and the outcomes based on good ethics and warrior disciplines will inspire more people to lead better lives.
