Stevie Wright of the Easybeats Battling Health Problems

Stevie Wright, the lead singer of the Australian band the Easybeats who scored the hit Friday on My Mind in 1967, is currently hospitalized for a myriad of problems.

According to the Sydney Telegraph, Wright was admitted to St. Vincent's Hospital last week for a seizure but it has since been discovered that he has problems with his liver, lungs, kidneys and stomach. Wright told the paper "I'm having procedures. I had a cough, so specialists started with my lungs, then my groin was giving me trouble ... They are also looking at an infection in my throat and stomach. And then there are the liver and kidney issues."

Wright, who recently had a section of intestine removed, is a survivor of both alcohol and drug addiction.
