Mills, Richard Peabody, Dawn Swoop, Stephen Vincent, Eddie Woods, Edwin Forrest Ward, Lewis Warsh, John Wieners FIRST WORDS Looking at a photograph of Lewis Warsh, Bill Corbett, Lee Harwood and John Wieners in the fairly recent issue of Mimeo/Mimeo - taken in 1972 on a winter day at Walden Pond, I got intrigued. Wanted to know more. Through Jim Burns I managed to contact Lee Harwood and Bill Corbett. And then Lewis Warsh. There are little stories, history at every turn. The kind of history I enjoy and hopefully you do too. Certainly, if I pressed them there would be untold history with them all. Naturally the aim is to bring you fresh aspects, but the back stories exist and wait to be uncovered. So many crossroads to go to at midnight, so many connections. Enjoy this issue. A special edition next time. More on that in due course. As ever, tell your friends.

Eddie Woods provides a first hand account of him in Amsterdam. Burroughs obviously thought a lot of Europe, living in London for prolonged periods, the Beat Hotel in Paris, his regular and hugely popular readings in Germany, Netherlands - there is nothing better than a personal, close up account. A young Burroughs here - Woods encounters him in the last days. Is this the face of a sheep killing dog?
