    I am not sure how other pressings sound, but I don't feel the need or urge to find out. This version of Low sounds glorious, it is definitely a keeper. RIP Bowie, we all miss you.

      Great sounding record, I can only recommend purchasing old pressing of the Bowie records. The remasters tend to be bass heavy and quite soulless, while this one sounds extremely organic
