About Heroes

"Heroes" is the 12th studio album by English musician David Bowie, released on RCA Records on 14 October 1977. It was the second instalment of his "Berlin Trilogy" recorded with producers Brian Eno and Tony Visconti, following Low (released earlier that year) and preceding Lodger (1979). Of the three albums, it was the only one wholly recorded in Berlin. "Heroes" continued the ambient experiments of its predecessor, albeit with more pop elements and passionate lyrics and featured contributions from King Crimson guitarist Robert Fripp. "Heroes" was the most well-received work of Bowie's Berlin Trilogy by music critics on release, and was named Album of the Year by NME and Melody Maker. It was also a commercial success, peaking at number 3 on the UK Albums Chart. The title track remains one of Bowie's best known and acclaimed songs. An altered and obscured version of the album's cover artwork later appeared as the artwork for Bowie's 2013 album The Next Day.
