I have read several Jimi biographies, he most informed sources say he took 9 vesperax sleeping pills and also was drinking wine that night, he feel alseep or passed out, threw up and choked on his own vomit -- the official cause of death. Basically he committed suicide. There was "girlfriend" with him that night gave several conflicting stories and was a pretty messed liar. She killed herself ten years later. I don't don't who you mean by 'They". I don't buy the line that he "underestimated" the strength of the drug, I think he took nine because he had a thing about that number, was depressed and left it to fate. However, he was NOT a herion addict -- hated needles. I recommend the book "Jimi Hendrix: The Man, the Music, the Truth by Sharon Lawrence" which has the best explanation of his death that I have found.

yes and unfortunately so did almost every other musician back then and even still today. U didnt know Hendrix took drugs? Obviously theres more than 1 person who has, judging from this question.

Do you know who Jimi Hendrix is? Because I don't think it means what you think it means.

yeah he did
some of his songs were based on his drug trips
&alot of things [tshirts/banners ect.] that include jimi also include pot leafs and stuff like that.
he also died of a drug overdose
and you ppl who are like 'duuuuh you didnt know that???' give the guy a break! obviosley he didnt know and thats that.
dont judge him just because he might not be as well informed.
sheesh.
but again to answer your question. yess jimi did do drugs.

Probably, but not as much as people would like you to think. People spread rumors that he had a tab of acid under his bandana so he could play like he did, but thats player hater, no pun intended.
