It's crazy to think about what this album might have been had it been finished at the time, with every track given the same sort of attention to detail as Heroes and Villains.
I think The SMiLE Sessions is the strongest version, but yeah, some tracks on Brian Wilson's individually are better. I've seen a few fan made mixes with different takes and tracks from both projects, which I might give a listen. And yes, Revolver has long been my favourite album, definitely on the same level, I'm glad you share that opinion!
