ROMEO'S DAUGHTER - Delectable +1 (2011)

Romeo’s Daughter were UK answer to the popular American Melodic Rock bands such as Journey and Foreigner.
John 'Mutt' Lange produced their debut album and was slated to produce "Delectable". Fate, however, had something else in mind.
The band was delayed due to Mutt’s schedule and, eventually, had to move on without him. They also lost their record label and were forced to go the independent route.
Unfortunately, they were unable to break in America and ended up as one of the bands in the ‘should have made it’ file.

Long time out of print, "Delectable" now it's being re-issued, remastered and with a bonus track.
The album has shades of female fronted AOR / Melodic Rock bands - such as Scandal, Bad Sister, If Only - in that fantastic vocalist Leigh Matty doing an amazing job.
She was backed by a tight band that excelled at rocking out and producing smooth, melodic ballads.
The best songs are upbeat such as “Have Mercy” which sounds like it could easily be reworked into a Def Leppard classic.
“Addicted To The Animal” should have been a huge hit as this one really rocks.
The band sounds pretty americanized on “Nothing But Love”, specially on the catchy chorus.
“God Only Knows” is a heartfelt track as is the beautiful mid-tempo AOR “Treat Me Like A Lady”.
Bonus track “Talk Dirty To Me” is just as tantalizing as the title sounds.


It’s a shame this band didn’t have a few breaks as they had the chops, the skills and the sound to make it big.
Thumbs up for this re-issue, bringing this music back to the fans.
If you missed Romeo’s Daughter the first time around, you will be glad to get a second opportunity to check them out.
Highly Recommended.
