Huddersfield is a market town in West Yorkshire that gave the world acting legend James Mason, Recordbreaker Roy Castle and Dr Who star Jodie Whittaker. Since the mid 90s Hudderfield have been home to art rock legends The Scaramanga Six whose most exciting memeber is the Western- Super-Mare born Paul Morricone. After 10 albums with the band Mr Morricone manager to master the lead guitar, sax, synths, singing and songwriting and also film making. There are now those who say the future is: Paul Morricone. Wrath Records are proud to present Paul's third and best album which is entitled 'Go Sanction Yourself'

Amongst those keen to champion Mr Morricone are the BBC 6Music man Tom Robinson who recently declared:

“If there’d ever been a dream collaboration between Scott Walker and Massive Attack this is what it might have sounded like…so dense and ambitious: a huge widescreen soundscape where the harmonic surprises never stop coming”

Help a dog and get a great painting by Tori Day at a reduced price


Often the quickest way to feel a bit of happiness is to help someone else... 

"The purpose of our lives is to be happy. Happiness is not something readymade. It comes from your own actions. If you want others to be happy practice compassion." (Dalai Lama)

The lovely person and talented artist: Tori Day has a beautiful dog called Yogi Bear (see photo above). As a result of an urgent need for funds to cover vet bills she is keen to sell one of her framed paintings at a reduced price. Yogi has ruptured his cruciate ligament and needs an investigative X-ray followed by surgery. This is a unique oppotunity to get an excellent art work at a bargain price and, more importantly, help a handsome hound enjoy 2024. Help if you can. Her email is: toridayart@icloud.com


Above and below: Some of the paintings by Tori Day that are now available at a bargain price. For more info: Tori's website


Tori and her husband Charlie Day were the managers of the briliant Studio One Gallery. They helped lots of artists put on shows including myself, Mel Cole and Mikey Georgeson. If you don't have room for a painting but you'd like to help by donating something like £10 let me know (harry_pye@hotmail.com)
