Heroes (Gil Evans and Lee Konitz album)


Heroes is a live album by pianist Gil Evans and saxophonist Lee Konitz recorded in New York in 1980 and released on the French Verve label.

Critical reception

The Allmusic review stated "Since Evans was far from a virtuoso and at best played "arranger's piano", his accompaniment behind Konitz is quite sparse... overall this is a rather uneventful and often dull release that can easily be passed by".
