I really don't think it matters which album was written or released first.  
Sell Out has enough original ideas to stand alone in comparison to Pepper.  
Is the loose concept idea from Pepper?  Possibly, but who's to say that the 
Beatles didn't pick up on the Kink's Face to Face a year earlier?  The Who's 
sound definately gravitated toward the psychadelic side of '67, but since 
they were observing the beginning of the "summer of love" with their own 
eyes at Monterey it's pretty understandable.
