The Heavy Hitter
The Heavy Hitter is an album by American jazz saxophonist Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis recorded in 1979 and released on the Muse label.

Critical reception
Allmusic stated "Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis recorded many albums during the 15 years before his death in 1986; virtually all are recommended. This album is a little-known quartet set with pianist Albert Dailey, bassist George Duvivier and drummer Victor Lewis, Davis' only recording for Muse. Lockjaw had never worked with Dailey or Lewis before but they have little difficulty interpreting the tough-toned tenor's usual repertoire.
