[edit] Birthplace

There is no such place as 'Walker-on-Tyne, Northumberland'. Surely this should be Walker, Newcastle upon Tyne which, incidentally, isn't in Northumberland.

Main article amended accordingly. Please sign your comments. Four tildes (4x~) is all that is required. Thank you.

[edit] Hendrix' "suicide"

I read a biograsphy of Hendrix and it said that Eric Burdon told a newspaper that Hendrix had intentionally commit suicide, can anyone corroborate this?

In Eric Burdon's biography called "dont let me be misunderstood" i think he wrote about Hendrix being "accidentally" given too many sleeping pills by this parisian girl... He blamed the girl for Hendrix' death, and if im not mistaken the girl was investigated.

[edit] Discography

I added a cleanup tag. The Animals part is confused because it presents a partial mixture of the UK and U.S. sequences. It would really be better just to refer to it with a {{main|The Animals discography}}. The post-War part is very confused, because it mixes Animals reissues with Burdon solo works; it's impossible to tell what's what. Wasted Time R (talk) 21:35, 4 December 2007 (UTC)
