Product Details

Released in January 1977, *Low* arrived as Bowie was actively shedding the cocaine-fueled excess of his Los Angeles period, drawing instead on Krautrock influences like Neu! and Kraftwerk to build something genuinely strange and new. The album's stark, fractured Side One and largely instrumental Side Two felt like two different records, a tension that made it one of the most formally adventurous things a major rock artist had attempted at the time.


11th studio album by the acclaimed English singer-songwriter. 'Low' became the first of three collaborations with producers Brian Eno and Tony Visconti, later termed the 'Berlin Trilogy'. However, the album was recorded largely in France at the Château d'Hérouville and marked a shift in Bowie's musical style toward an electronic and ambient approach that would be further explored on subsequent albums 'Heroes' (1977) and 'Lodger' (1979).
