3 stars The band members sporting facepaint on the cover might recall Peter Gabriel's getup in Genesis from the era, but actually if there's one British band that Osanna draw on here it's actually Jethro Tull, with Elio D'anna's hard rock flute performances highly reminiscent of Ian Anderson's work. But just as Elio also offers excellent soloing on the piccolo and two flavours of saxophone, so too is the Osanna of L'Uomo distinctive and diverse and no mere imitators. Offering a rowdier, more overtly psychedelic and heavier progressive rock sound than the one they would offer on Palepoli, L'Uomo might be a little rough around the edges but it's still a decent debut, though there's an extent to which it comes at the cost of quality control.
