The manager of the band was Olga Lange, then the wife of Robert John "Mutt" Lange. Mutt Lange was impressed by their songwriting abilities and agreed to produce (part of) their debut album. Hence, Romeo's Daughter was often seen as proteges of Mutt Lange.
The first album contained the singles "Don't Break My Heart", "I Cry Myself to Sleep at Night", covered by Bonnie Tyler and "Heaven in the Back Seat", the latter from the "Nightmare on Elm Street Part V" soundtrack. The album was produced by Mutt Lange and John Parr. "Wild Child" (written by Mutt Lange) was later covered by Heart on the Brigade album, and "Heaven in the Back Seat" was covered by Eddie Money on his 1991 album, Right Here, which was also produced by Mutt Lange.
The second album, "Delectable" was a more mature affair, although it was released on the smaller Music For Nations label so got less exposure. Mitman went on to work with FM and other bands while the band quietly broke up in the mid 1990s.

This is the eponymous debut album from the short-lived UK hard rock band Romeo's Daughter. It consisted of two halves — songs produced by Robert John "Mutt" Lange, responsible for Def Leppard, Shania Twain and other rock albums in the 1980s and 1990s, and songs produced by John Parr. The album was a critical success but had only limited success in the AOR market.
