PJ Album with the least Eddie Music

Besides Ten, does anyone know which PJ album Eddie contributed the least too, in terms of music?
On a side note, am I right in thinking that during 'the middle period' Yield - Self-titled / Avocado the other band members stepped up in the lyrics department, but that seems to have been absent in the last couple of releases.

    it's Yield. He only had 2 songs on that record. Wishlist and MFC. And only wrote half of the lyrics.

    Interesting since so many people love Yield. But it's great that fans love Eddie heavy stuff and non-Eddie heavy stuff.

    Weird because Ten and Yield are my top two favorites but I generally love all Eddie-written songs

    Ive been on a Yield kick recently. Ive listened to that album several times over the last couple weeks. It flows very well.

    I listen to Yield at least once a week. My favorite album, no doubt.

    Listened to the whole thing last week for the first time in a few months. I usually just cherry pick the first 4 tracks and then stop, but made the commitment again to do the entire thing. Reminded me how strong the album overall.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    Yield is my favourite too. I don't know why, but it just sounds like such a positive album to me. That's not to say it doesn't cover some serious emotional ground. I don't know what it is, the production? It has a real clean, crisp sound. Out of all their albums it's the one I come away feeling the most positive emotionally after listening to. Been listening to Low Light a lot recently.

    I skip Pilate (sorry, I just can't with that song) but pretty much listen to the rest straight through.

    Ed contributed to No Way, correct? He plays guitar/sitar on it live and that's usually a solid indication he wrote it. Throw in U and Leatherman, and you can see where Ed's contributions were.

    I think that Ed's songwriting was at it's peak on the sessions for Binaural. Breakerfall, Light Years, Insignificance, Grievance, Soon Forget, Parting Ways, Sad, Education, Hitchhiker. I think that's all. Really amazing songwriting in those songs.

    It's the best Pearl Jam driver album. Put it on. Next time you have a couple of hours of running errands

    Yield is my least favorite so I must have a thing for torment. Vitalogy is my favorite (coincidently very Ed heavy). I do enjoy the heck out of Ten though.
