Most Awful In regards to Robin singing less lead post 1972, interesting that I've heard two interviews with Blue Weaver and John Merchant after Robin's death where they said Robin wasn't really crazy about singing lead.  They both said they didn't really know why.

I=E2ve never heard this from Blue, but I believe you. I do remember hearing the story that Baz vocals weren’t working on “Love Me=E2. Barry has stated that Rob could sing effortless I’ve often wondered if Rob’s confidence didn’t take a hit when he returned to the fold. Once Barry hit his stride with his falsetto, perhaps Rob felt out of place. It’s quite hard to think behind Robin. That voice!

It might have happened way before that, on a different song, but left the feeling in his heart.
Robin always sang like he loved doing it.
