One of the most celebrated albums & songs of all-time from one of the most iconic artists of the 20th century, "Heroes" was released by David Bowie in October 1977 to critical and commercial acclaim. Following the release of "Low" earlier the same year, the album is the second in Bowie's highly influential "Berlin Trilogy". The titular track was released in September as the lead single and although not hugely successful upon initial release, went on to become regarded as one of Bowie's greatest tracks and one of the greatest of all-time.
Featuring iconic album artwork shot by Masayoshi Sukita, which, in the same vein as Iggy Pop's "The Idiot" cover, pays homage to Erich Heckel's Roquairol and Young Man paintings, this stunning poster was created as part of the promotion for Bowie's "Isolar II" tour. Printed by RCA Records in 1978 in the USA, this beautiful piece is extremely rare and a fantastic piece of music & Bowie history.
