Full article:

Pete Townshend : I was having to answer hysterical phone calls from Alice (Clapton's girlfriend, Alice Ormsby-Gore) practically every night ... What she needed to talk about was that she was giving Eric all of her heroin supply, most unselfishly. And then she was having to deal with Eric's extremely selfish outbursts accusing her of doing the reverse. He kept alleging she was keeping the best for herself.
