Dylan and the Pope, the drummer on 42 Number 1s & rock stars who were teenage crims

Seeking another landslide victory in our 20-year conversational campaign, this week’s vote-winners include …

… did Bob Dylan take the Pope a jigsaw and some Lucozade?

… the drummer whose first session was a Number One

… did John Lennon mug a sailor?

… albums by Duffy, Frankie, ABC and the Darkness that “died like a louse in a Russian's beard”

… another cover that’s better than the Beatles’ original

… Hal Blaine, the Knack, Joe Meek and the Stones Roses

… why Ozzy Osbourne is ‘the Norman Wisdom of Crime’

… and Tuppy Glossop, Bingo Little, ‘Catsmeat’ Potter-Pirbright and Freddie & the Nutters.
