How long is your version of Heroes and Villains?
I have a question, is there a good version of this album that sounds relatively complete and doesn't include all the half-finished instrumental stuff? Preferably in mono

Smile Sessions.

>complete sounding version of an incomplete album

>>60280141
Yeah I edge on saying I like this more than the Smile Sessions version for that reason, but it ain't quite the same without the Beach Boys singing
>>60280050
Obviously not. Considering it was never completed you're not going to find a complete version of it, other than this poor excuse >>60280141 with old man vocals
I've had an EP of versions I've made. There's 7-minute and 7:30 minute cantata versions, and a two-part version that totals 8 minutes.

Mind linking us Senpai?
7:35. Longest one I have is ~23 minutes. My peronal edit is around 5:30.

How the hell do you have a 23 minute version of Heroes and Villains?
>>60282351
Mine is 8 minutes long, how did you lay yours out?

I modeled it after a three-part cantata format, having the uobeat "I've been in this town" section first, the slower "margarita" and "children" sections and extra piano/harpsichord and chants for the second part, and a climactic reprise, using the alternate take of the first verse, and the "dum dum dum" part at the end, and it fades out with a repeated harpsichord note that sounds like a clock striking noon.
For the two-parted one, the first part (what could've been a single) is kind of like the original single version, but adds the margarita part and has a quieter harpsichord part to fade out on. The second part has all the disjointed chants and piano parts, functioning as a less-commercial B-side.

Mine is basically the Smile Sessions version with Gee acting like the intro, Verse one with the chorus, a mash up of Children was raised version one and Peace of the valley, the upbeat Heroes and Villains Chant, cantia, other H/V chant, Childrens was raised version 2, CHorus, and fade.
Odd choices, but it works really well in my head

I sourced mine from another fan mix, one that was 12 minutes and has practically everything that was recorded for it.

Interesting. Suppose we should swap our versions some time
Anybody wanna post a mega of their version? haven't been able to find a working one on the archives
>>60285240
Eh I guess, It's just SLN's mix but with the extended Heroes and ViIllains
I like the 2 part single from The Smile Sessions. The first part is the cantina version, the original mix from 1967 that was going to be released. Thats the real Heroes and Villains for me.
The best fan version is by far the AlternateBrianWilson one.

old man vocals
Exactly, can we all finally agree that Smile Sessions is the superior recording and move on yet?
>inb4 Smiley Smile, the poor man's Smile
There is one on youtube that fills in the gaps of the Smile Sessions side one with BWPS. So its mostly Smile Sessions but uses the vocals from BWPS to finish the instrumental tracks. I think its 3867 or something like that.
It does an ok job, but sometimes it uses BWPS vocals when the orignal superior vocals already exists

I will say that I kinda prefer BWPS and SS' H&V to the Sessions. That upright bass during the hook is kinda obnoxious.
Well actually: SS>Sessions>BWPS
