I know that. I certainly am not trying to discredit the man that I have every album and recording of. He had “cleaned himself up” a hundred times prior to his demise, as most addicts do. He was hooked on smack. Perhaps that is where his gutsy music that we all enjoy to this day came from.

I am listening to him jammin’ with Albert King right now! A hard to find album recorded back in 1983 in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada at the CHCH Studio.

But you don’t know that he wouldn’t have stayed clean this time. We’ll never know unfortunately. Don’t leave the impression, with those who don’t aren’t familiar with Stevie’s work, that he died from drugs.
