YE JOLLY OLDE iTUNES U.K. CHARTS: Several points of interest on this chilly Friday in November. Prospect Park provocateur Azealia Banks is blowing up in Britain as well as the States (see below). SYCO/Columbia’s 1D rollout is proceeding apace with the album pre-order and a chart-topping track, while Columbia’s Calvin Harris presently has the #1 album. Big Machine’s Taylor Swift is holding steady, as is critically acclaimed Island singer/songwriter Ben Howard. And Roswell/RCA’s Foo Fighters have landed another instant-grat track from Sonic Highways on the big board. Long live rock. (11/7a)
