Reply to comment by TheVinylBird in How many of you would agree with me on The Beatles being overrated by drums-please-fab-

I've heard this, but I think it's taken a bit out of context. His reaction to Sgt. Pepper was because it was better-received at the time, and it's what made him stop work on 'Smile'. Both George Martin and Paul McCartney credited Pet Sounds with making Sgt. Pepper possible

Yes, they were having a back n forth...but from Brian Wilson's own mouth it was Revolver where The Beatles broke the ground he had been trying to get to. With Sgt Peppers the back n forth was over.
