Venetian band Le Orme produced some of the most iconic Italian progressive rock albums, including Collage (1971), Uomo di pezza (1972), Felona e Sorona (1973) [re-recorded in English for Charisma Records, released as Felona and Sorona for the international market, with translation provided by Van Der Graaf Generator’s Peter Hammill].
Later, the band released Contrappunti (1974), the live album In Concerto (1974), and Smogmagica (1975).
The most famous lineup was a trio: Aldo Tagliapietra on vocals, guitar, bass; Tony Pagliuca on keyboards; and Michi Dei Rossi on drums.
Like many other Italian bands, they later gradually moved away from progressive rock.
