The best thing on the last Bill album New Adventures. This had the added bonus of a guest contribution from the inimitable Patti Smith which takes an already beautiful track towards the realms of the sublime. The band, and Michael Stipe had always been quite upfront about the importance of Patti as a fundamental formative influence. This is a tender and moving meeting of minds. Remarkably a single release, it made # 4 in the UK Singles Chart, the highest placing the band achieved.
