One is answer is that in the early seventies, it wasn't clear to a lot of performers how much songwriting credits could be worth, so perhaps they undervalued their long term value, and settled for cash. The other answer is drugs. Some of the fellows made poor decisions that affected their bottom line. It seems Robbie eluded that.(less)
