Шаблон:Infobox album 10 Cent Wings is an album by the American musician Jonatha Brooke, released in 1997.[1][2] It was her only album for MCA Records.[3] The title refers to an ad a venue once ran to promote a Brooke live show.[4] "Crumbs" was the first single.[5]

The album peaked at No. 34 on Billboard's Heatseekers Albums chart.[6] Its singles were hits on adult album alternative radio stations.[7]

Production

The album was produced by Brooke's husband, Alain Mallet.[8] "Glass Half Empty" is about the deceased musician Kevin Gilbert.[9] Duke Levine contributed guitar parts to the album.[10]

Critical reception

Шаблон:Album ratings The Washington Post wrote that "at times Brooke stretches her literary conceits too far, but her keyboardist-producer-arranger-husband Alain Mallet always wraps her appealing melodies in quirky, thickened chamber-pop arrangements."[11] Entertainment Weekly praised Brooke's "complex, intensely melodic tunes and her uncliched, heartfelt poetry."[12] The New York Times concluded that Brooke "ventures further into torchy folk-pop with high literary aspirations."[13]

The Los Angeles Daily News thought that the "startlingly mature collection is eclectic and electric with Brooke supplying acoustic guitar and emotionally charged, first-rate material."[14] The Chicago Tribune determined that "while her strong new album ... doesn't completely sidestep the occasional cliché, the songs generally showcase a noteworthy artistry."[15] The Indianapolis Star stated that Brooke's "conversational style is accessible and perfectly suited for her musical tone—folky and earth-toned, with strings, horns and electronics painting some of the backdrop."[16]

AllMusic wrote that "Mallet pastes together various genres without meshing them, and often the verses, chorus and bridge each have a radically different style."[17] No Depression determined that Brooke "made exactly the right record at exactly the right time—1997’s 10 Cent Wings, released the same year Lilith Fair made her brand of classy female-centric folk-pop all the rage—and found herself bounced from the major-label ranks for her trouble."[18] The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel listed the album as the sixth best of 1997.[4]
