Uno is the sole album by the Italian progressive rock band Panna Fredda. The album was recorded in 1970 but their record company delayed the release until 1971 and provided very little marketing support. As a consequence the album was not successful and the group disbanded. Uno was recorded in 1970 making it "one of the first classics of Italian progressive rock."[1]
The album did not have a significant impact on release; however, it has been positively reviewed in later years. Dag Erik Asbjørnsen reviewing Uno in Scented gardens of the mind said: "The secrets behind the great success of this album are magnificent songwriting and musicianship, inventive instrumental ideas (often with references to classical music) and the consistent atmosphere throughout the album."[1]
Jerry Lucky in The progressive rock files said: "A sound that is reminiscent of their contemporaries Banco and Semiramis only a little spicier sounding."[2] Augusto Croce in Italian prog said: "With a great album, highly representative of the Italian prog sound, Panna Fredda should have deserved more success" and "The voice is good, the lyrics original and the album has no weak spots."[3]
Later reissues added bonus tracks from Panna Fredda's two singles and some unreleased tracks.
