It is stated that Laine formed the Electric String Band in December 1966, including Burton, who was a "former member of The Move". Burton was a member of The Move from early 1966 to 1969. Was he a member of Laine's band in parallel with his career in The Move; or are the dates wrong; or is it a different Burton? Matthau ( talk) 03:48, 22 April 2011 (UTC)
"In 1971, Laine joined Paul McCartney to found Wings, and stayed with them for a full ten years until they officially disbanded in 1981. Laine provided lead and rhythm guitars, backing vocals, keyboards, bass guitar, writing and co-writing skills, as well as being a solid solo performer. "
Just how does his skill as a solo performer belong in a sentence about his role in this GROUP? GeneCallahan ( talk) 13:52, 16 March 2012 (UTC)
Dennie Laine passed away March 28th of 2022 2600:1015:B058:A0E2:D8B2:1075:C213:8399 ( talk) 23:47, 16 June 2022 (UTC)
Someone very obviously doesn't want any one to know that Denny Laine's son Laine Hines is a blues musician. He is. I've seen him and he is very good - that last bit, obviously, isn't something that would be welcome on a Wikipedia site as it is my own opinion but the fact that Denny Laine's son is a blues musician is a fact and is just as relevant to Denny's personal life section as the fact that Zak Starkey is a musician as well as being Ringo Starr's son. When I added this in it got taken down because, "We don't use any kind of self published site as a source," although, of course, a record company web site would be accepted despite the fact that they self publish their news. And I didn't publish the site I cited anyway. Anyway, look him up. He is a blues musician and he is Denny Laine's son: " https://www.google.com/search?q=laine+hines" I still think that the fact Denny Laine's son has followed in his father's footsteps and become a blues musician is relevant. Otherwise, why not remove the fact he even exists as there's nothing in the article to cite that (yes, I know there is other stuff online but if you're going to get anal about what goes on Wikipedia you really ought to go the whole nine yards!). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.169.162.202 ( talk) 00:27, 18 June 2022 (UTC)
In 1981, Deny opened a music shop in Church Street, Weybridge. I walked past it regularly.

There are many sources which state that Hines was born in Tyseley, Birmingham, England. Here's the entry at FreeBMD: [1]. Yet the BBC alone here now says Channel Islands. Which is correct? Martinevans123 ( talk) 20:38, 5 December 2023 (UTC)
Denny, Brian Hines, was born in Birmingham. The "Channel Islands" were under Nazi occupation in October 1944, so it would have been IMPOSSIBLE for his parents to travel back to Warwickshire to register his birth. If the BBC or Britannica were willing to pay the 10 pounds to get a copy of his birth certificate, there wouldn't be this continued nonsense. Just like Roy Wood (another Brum Beat artist) is not called Ulysses. Brian F Hines' birth was registered with Warwickshire county council in the last quarter of 1944, this fact alone should completely eliminate any talk of Nazi Occupied Channel Islands. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.77.114.48 ( talk) 05:59, 6 December 2023 (UTC)
