If I were to compile a list of Welch's essential tunes from 71-74, the list would be partial but considerable:

Lay it All Down
Future Games
Sentimental Lady (the superior version)
Night Watch
Revelation
Miles Away
Hypnotized
Emerald Eyes
Keep on Going
Angel (live preferred)
Bermuda Triangle (live preferred)

I also love Bright Fire.

Christine wrote less. Much less. But her limited output was generally more consistent.

Show Me a Smile
Spare Me a Little
Remember Me
Dissatisfied
Did You Ever Love Me
Why
Believe Me (live preferred)
Keep On Going (Welch's tune made great by her vocals)
Bad Loser
Heroes are Hard to Find
Prove Your Love

For me, the number is the same.
