Lonesome Crow is the debut album of the German heavy metal band Scorpions produced by Conny Plank and released in 1972.

This was the only album the band released on which Michael Schenker was a full-time member of the group - he'd leave not long after to join UFO. He would be replaced by Ulrich Jon Roth on later albums. Michael Schenker, however, would make guest appearances on later Scorpions releases.
