Low je jedanaesti. studijski album engleskog glazbenika Davida Bowieja , objavljen na RCA Records 14. siječnja 1977. Snimljen nakon Bowiejevog preseljenja u Zapadni Berlin nakon razdoblja ovisnosti o drogama i osobne nestabilnosti, Low je postao prva od tri suradnje s glazbenikom Brianom Enoom i producent Tony Visconti , kasnije nazvan " Berlinskom trilogijom ". Album je zapravo zabilježen u velikoj mjeri u Francuskoj i obilježio je pomak u Bowiejevom glazbenom stilu prema elektronskom i avangardnom pristupu koji bi se dalje istraživao na kasnijim albumima "Heroes" (1977) i Lodger (1979).
Iako se u početku sastajao s mješovitim kritičkim kritikama, Low je od tada postao poznat kao jedan od najboljih i najutjecajnijih djela Bowieja. Pitchfork ga je stavio na prvo mjesto na popisu Top 100 albuma 1970-ih, [9] dok je Q stavio na 14. mjesto na popisu 100 najvećih britanskih albuma ikad. [10] Godine 2013. NME je album objavio kao 14. najveći od svih vremena. [11] Također je navedena kao jedan od 500 najvećih albuma Rolling Stonea svih vremena .
