Rick Kern and Tom Meros (music historian) talk about the Golden Era of Rock 'n Roll. Tom, an attorney and degreed historian, has been doing oral recollections from A list performers all over the U.S. and UK. since 2010. His passion for doing the many YouTube episodes (in person) not on zoom or other digital platforms, really impressed Rick. The two of them have decided to do some collaborating on some upcoming episodes that will include Tom's future podcast partner, John Medora, who penned the hit song 'At The Hop'. 

In this episode of TalkandRockRadio, Tom and Rick talk about the importance of keeping the music legacies of the great artists alive. Tom shares some of his personal stories that involve songstress, Petula Clark. They also discuss the impact of the music during a time of political turbulance - the Vietnam War, assasination of John F Kennedy and Martin Luther King.

Music has played such an important part of bringing the world together during times of happiness and sadness. The main take-away of this episode is we have to keep the history and memories alive for future generations. It's too important and if it's lost......it might never be rediscovered.
