Svalutation is the 16th album by Italian singer Adriano Celentano, issued in 1976. The word "svalutation" is a mock English word coined after the Italian "svalutazione", which correctly translates to "devaluation", and the title track ironizes on the Italian economical and political crisis of the time.[1]

The album named a television musical variety show, written and presented by the same Celentano and broadcast on Rai 3 in 1992.[1]
