I am pretty sure it was Dan Akroyd that talked about that when mentioning John Belushi. He said it was the same part of John's creative side that also made him destructive.
Have you read the Ray Charles biography? He was on it forever until getting busted and finally getting clean. The Keith Richards book Life goes into his addictions pretty deep- basically lost decades. And of the course the Heroin Diaries by Nikki Sixx. Some say his book was all bullshit, but since he died, I think he was telling the truth.
