I perform I Fail Again from the new record before performing a cover of Bonnie Raitt's I Can't Make You Love Me. Music recommendation is Imogen Heap's Ellipse.Imogen Heap--singer/songwriter/producer and two-time Grammy nominee--is back with her much anticipated new solo album, Ellipse. Beginning in Hawaii and working her way through Fiji, Imogen Heap has poured her heart and soul into writing her next masterpiece. Ellipse was recorded in her new studio, which she built in her old family home in Essex, U.K., and features the lead track "First Train Home."Pre-order the Memories and Photographs Limited CDBuy Imogen Heap's Ellipse on AmazonBuy Imogen Heap's Ellipse from Imogen HeapBuy Imogen Heap's Ellipse from iTunesemail me a question at podcasts@caseystratton.comListen to Podcast #33
