Storia Di Un Uomo E Una Donna / Eppur Mi Son Scordato Di Te

Released in 1972 on the Disques Vogue label, this 45-rpm single represents a specific moment for the Italian progressive rock band Formula 3. The group was famously mentored by Lucio Battisti, who signed them to his Numero Uno label in Italy, though this particular international release was distributed through the French Disques Vogue imprint to expand their reach in European markets. The track choice captures the band's transition from straightforward pop-rock to more experimental arrangements that defined the Italian prog scene of the early 1970s.

The composition features the signature production style associated with the Numero Uno collective, focusing on layered instrumentation and the distinctive vocal delivery that characterized Formula 3's output. The design of the sleeve is functional and minimalist, typical of European distribution singles of the era, intended to highlight the group's name and the specific track titles for radio play and jukebox operators. Upon release, the record was well-received by fans of the burgeoning Italian prog movement, solidifying the band's reputation as technically proficient musicians capable of bridging the gap between mainstream melody and complex structural experimentation.
