Hi allen, quite agree with aspects of your take on Barrett. Re the 'three',
don't disagree on their differences at all. They have an extremely various
practice between them . But was suggesting that
as a 'group' (very much in and out of each houses and pockets over
a sustained number of years, talked, co-organised, performed together
- even in some instances wrote 'together') there's a site at which
their interests converse. That's the site that interests me and
provokes me. Maube it's my imaginary site - so
talk more when i get back
love and love
