Moments In Time 2.0
The sequel to the critically acclaimed and multi-award winning book Moments In Time, Moments In Time 2.0 will put a smile on your face as author Tom Locke explores Rock & Roll’s journey from the clipping of its wings in the early 60s through the sprouting and development of sub-genres in the 70s to the synthesizing of music compositions in the 80s.
Like Tom’s first book, all the stories are two pages in length with the first page acting as a teaser, providing readers with just enough information to pique their interest so that they will try and figure out which artist or what song is being featured. Page two is the reveal of the mystery, culminating with the inclusion of a link to the referenced song via a QR code.
How many artists with the first name of “Bobby” were we introduced to in the 60s? Who discovered the Jackson 5? How did a street sign become the inspiration for a #1 country hit by the Oak Ridge Boys? What do the Supremes, Vanilla Fudge, and Kim Wilde have in common?
“Tom has done it again with his latest endeavor, Moments In Time 2.0. We in radio would call it Solid Gold!” – Alex Ward, Pink & Black Days, SiriusXM Radio, Memphis, TN
Tom Locke lives with his wife, Cindy, in Vancouver, B.C., spending the majority of his time writing and executive producing in the entertainment industry. Over the past twenty-five years, Tom has also studied and consulted on the impact of digital technology in business. It was during this period of time that he introduced the online world to his music creation, “Moments In Time.”
His passion for music and the encouragement from family, friends, and entertainment industry colleagues resulted in the writing of this Moments In Time sequel. Looking back on his Moments In Time brand, Tom realizes he was destined. The #1 pop song on the day he was born was “Music! Music! Music!” by Teresa Brewer.
