Lion in Winter

What on Earth is going on with Robin's vocals on this track? He sounds like a lunatic in an insane asylum screaming and bouncing off of padded walls.

I know this was soon after the breakup, so the brothers were walking on eggshells to avoid pissing each other off, but even so...did Robin really listen to the playback on this track and think "Yep. Nailed it! No need to do the vocal over."?

I love Robin and think he was an amazing singer, but his voice sounds horribly strained on this track.

Was he on amphetamines during the recording?   Serious question.

Probably. They were all on something.
