Missing word, or something?
[edit]One sentence reads, in part:
- was so popular that his private often did not allow him to sing any other style of music.
His private what? Or is this some meaning of the word I'm missing? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Davidhorman (talk • contribs) 23:10, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
DOB ====================================
[edit]Indicates that he was born "October 3, 1941 (age 70) Spring Gulley, South Carolina" — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.92.160.235 (talk) 02:33, 4 June 2012 (UTC)
Place of birth
[edit]The current article states that Checker was born in Spring Gulley, South Carolina and Andrews, South Carolina. Which is correct ?
