It's confession time - I was a graffiti vandal. Long since gone I bet, but desks from the old Cockermouth Gramnmar School would still bear the imprint DION which ruined many a fountain pen! He was my first musical hero. I had a standing oder at Mrs Kovari's in Cockermouth for any new record he brought out. He's been a survivor and I was bought his autobiography off e-bay (a signed copy) which was one of the most up-lifting books I'd read for years. Dion is the best, in my view, because he's equally good at rock, blues, r and b, folk, gospel, country or just good old fashioned pop - basically he can sing anything. When I pop my clogs Dion's The Wanderer will be played at my funeral.
