My understanding was that Smile was cannibalized and many of the tracks appeared on Smiley Smile, including Heroes and Villains, Vegetables, Good Vibrations, Wind Chimes, etc etc. This whole "lost album rediscovered" meme seems like marketing hype, and that Wilson and the record label are just repackaging material that's been on the market for years. (To sell the concert, more CDs, etc.) Pardon my cynicism. And I do love Brian Wilson's music.
