Renton, as a smaller municipality in King County, is often historically conflated with Seattle. Renton's Chamber of Commerce will gladly confirm that Hendrix was born and spent much of his youth there. Hendrix is also listed as a Notable Person on Renton, Washington.

The official Jimi Hendrix website and other reliable sources say that he was born at the King County Hospital in Seattle, which is now known as the Harborview Medical Center. Hendrix is buried in Renton and his childhood home was moved from Seattle to Renton. But I see no evidence that he was born in Renton. Cullen328 (talk) 07:23, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
According to Wikipedia, Dan Inosanto, a Filipino martial artist and close friend of Bruce Lee, was also in the 101st Airborn Division as a paratrooper from 1959 to 1961. There is a slim possibility that he and Jimi Hendrix crossed paths in 1961. Dan is 88 years old in 2024. It would be fascinating to know if they did, and to document it. 24.246.125.95 (talk) 15:58, 12 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
