OOPS ...typo in the above. Pete sang on "No Matter What". I accidentally repeated "Come And Get It", sang by Tom.

Pete Ham didn't sing lead vocal on "Come and get it." I think that was either Tom Evans or Joey. I think it was Joey.

Was Joey even in the group then? I thought Ron Griffiths was still in the group when it was recorded.

Actually Joey hadn't joined the band when Come And Get It was recorded. Not sure if Ron Griffiths had already left (or been fired, I can't remember). But Tom Evans sings it.
