Gary Glitter, “Rock & Roll Part 2” – Underage Sex Scandals
Although glam rocker Gary Glitter had a handful of hits in his native England, in the States he’s known for just one song – “Rock & Roll Part 2,” a bombastic anthem that just about every sports team has on its jukebox. That is, until Glitter was arrested in 1997 for having child pornography on his computer.
He fled the country on his yacht, eventually settling in Cambodia. In 2002 that country deported him to Vietnam, where he was arrested and jailed for child sexual abuse. He steadfastly denies any wrongdoing, but the evidence is pretty damning.

This is just terrible. With the fascinating stories behind the Kingsmen, Bobby Fuller, Singing Nun, Johnny Ace, Otis Redding, Janis Joplin (and that's all I can think of offhand), the oldest one hit wonder you have (who had more than one hit in England) is Gary Glitter?
