Had a cover story on Stevie Wright. (this is in Australia) It read "Stevie Wright My Tragic Last Days" I remember thinking "That's a bit rude he's still kicking." That was probably twenty years ago and he's still with us! What a life he's had.
I read a book on the Easybeats and some of his drug adventures could have been straight out of a Tarantino film.
Steve had a dealer in Melbourne. Unbeknownst to Steve one of his buddies was using his name to score drugs on credit saying "They're for Stevie."
Well he went around to this place one day to find he had a huge debt he knew nothing about.
Steve was convinced they were going to kill him there and then, they probably would have too except the phone rang. Guess who it was? The one person on earth who could get Steve off the hook. He said "I'm with Stevie Wright, can I get some stuff?" "Sure they said, come around now, come around right now"
the tragedy of little stevie
an easy read worht tracking down is abio of little stevie of easybeats fame
