In September 1971 the band released "Future Games", with the title song written by Welch. This album was different from anything the band had done previously. In 1972, six months after the release of "Future Games", the band released "Bare Trees", which featured Welch's "Sentimental Lady". This song was a big hit for Welch five years later when he re-recorded it for his solo album "French Kiss." Christine McVie also sang on the remake, and was a producer of the song.
