As Amy Winehouse reveals that she hasn't taken drugs for almost three years, Gigwise has taken a look at other music stars who have battled narcotics and alcohol over the years.

Music and drugs may have always gone hand in hand, but for some singers, experimentation often goes too far.

Depicting each musician before and after drugs, our round-up includes the likes of Winehouse, Pete Doherty and Ozzy Osbourne.

Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards, Courtney Love and late Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain are also included in our countdown.
