The album also features the gentle Dear Friends, John Deacon's Misfire, the vaudeville-inspired Bring Back That Leroy Brown, Brian May's heartfelt She Makes Me (Stormtrooper In Stilettoes), and concludes with the triumphant In The Lap Of The Gods... Revisited, a powerful finale that became a staple of Queen's legendary live performances.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2160\" data-end=\"2480\"\u003eA landmark album in the history of British rock, Sheer Heart Attack perfectly bridges Queen's early progressive sound with the arena-filling anthems that would follow.
