A Night at the Opera is the fourth studio album by the British rock band Queen, released on 21 November 1975 by EMI Records in the United Kingdom and by Elektra Records in the United States. Produced by Roy Thomas Baker and Queen, it was reportedly the most expensive album ever recorded at the time of its release.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eQueen were straining at the boundaries of hard rock and heavy metal on Sheer Heart Attack, but they broke down all the barricades on A Night at the Opera, a self-consciously ridiculous and overblown hard rock masterpiece. Using the multi-layered guitars of its predecessor as a foundation, A Night at the Opera encompasses metal ('Death on Two Legs,' 'Sweet Lady'), pop (the lovely, shimmering 'You're My Best Friend'), campy British music hall ('Lazing on a Sunday Afternoon,' 'Seaside Rendezvous'), and mystical prog rock (''39,' 'The Prophet's Song'), eventually bringing it all together on the pseudo-operatic 'Bohemian Rhapsody.' In short, it's a lot like Queen's own version of Led Zeppelin IV, but where Zep find dark menace in bombast, Queen celebrate their own pomposity. No one in the band takes anything too seriously, otherwise the arrangements wouldn't be as ludicrously exaggerated as they are. But the appeal -- and the influence -- of A Night at the Opera is in its detailed, meticulous productions. It's prog rock with a sense of humor as well as dynamics, and Queen never bettered their approach anywhere else.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eQueen: Freddie Mercury (vocals, piano); Brian May (guitar, harp, ukulele, background vocals); John Deacon (electric piano, acoustic \u0026amp; electric basses); Roger Taylor (percussion, background vocals).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRecorded at Sarm Studios, Roundhouse Studios, Olympic Studios, Scorpio Studios, Landsdowne Studios, London, England and Rockfield Studios, Wales.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFEATURES:\u003cbr\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003cbr\u003eGenre: Rock\u003cbr\u003eLimited Edition Import (UK)\u003cbr\u003eHeavyweight, 180 Gram black vinyl\u003cbr\u003eEmbossed Gatefold Jacket\u003cbr\u003eHalf-Speed Mastered\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e1\u003c\/span\u003e Death on Two Legs (Dedicated to...)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e2\u003c\/span\u003e Lazing on a Sunday Afternoon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e3\u003c\/span\u003e I'm in Love with My Car\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e4\u003c\/span\u003e You're My Best Friend\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e5\u003c\/span\u003e '39\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e6\u003c\/span\u003e Sweet Lady\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e7\u003c\/span\u003e Seaside Rendezvous\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e8\u003c\/span\u003e The Prophet's Song\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e9\u003c\/span\u003e Love of My Life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e10\u003c\/span\u003e Good Company\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e11\u003c\/span\u003e Bohemian Rhapsody\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e12\u003c\/span\u003e God Save the Queen\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"mySite","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":62998870065523,"sku":"BAV-2194-R","price":19.19,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0998\/5209\/1763\/files\/1F146D23-3441-9937-731C-C0F2B546197F.webp?v=1781796952","url":"https:\/\/sahva.shop\/products\/queen-a-night-at-the-opera-limited-edition-vinyl-lp","provider":"ForestMusic","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
