I just received the newest release, Come and Get It, by Queen Delphine & The Crown Jewels and it’s got style. Opening with My Cat Got Nine Lives, a cool shuffle track features Queen on lead vocal accompanied by Norman Hamilton on harp, Lester “Lammy” Johnson on bass, Steven Weakley on guitar and Keith Strong. With a polished strut, Queen lays down a good opener. On I’m A Woman, Lammy drives the track with a strong bass line and Delphine gives it a healthy vocal oomph backed by Ezra Bufford on keys. Very cool. What Would I Do has a light airy feel with Delphine’s vocals floating on a bed of keys and light percussion. Strong radio style track. R&B track with pop styling and Gospel overtones, Kindness For Weakness, is springy and solid. Bufford adds a real nice key solo adding a cool edge. Wrapping the release is Lammy’s Blues, an instrumental blues with a bit of funk. With a solid bass line from Lammy, Hamilton plays harp and lead guitar over a tight drum rhythm. Bufford is spot on with a solid key solo making this a super closer.
