R.E.M. (without Michael Stipe) collaborated on a side project with the singer Warren Zevon. (Note that the lineup also played on Zevon’s own album _Sentimental Hygiene_.) The HLG album includes covers of many blues standards as well as Prince’s “Raspberry Beret.” Opinions about the project vary greatly: some saw it as a mediocre knock off of some blues standards that should not have been released, others as a fun romp for the instrumental 3/4 of R.E.M.
