In one of her memoirs Viv Albertine talks about touring with Don Cherry in the 1970s and upsetting him by saying "I hate junkies", not knowing that Cherry was himself an addict (Cherry apparently replied, "I hate hate"). So I certainly think his addiction was more than a youthful phase, sadly.

In one of her memoirs Viv Albertine talks about touring with Don Cherry in the 1970s…Slight derail: with the first memoir I really liked or admired who I thought she was, the second memoir I cooled on that considerably.
