Fuck it, I'm here now though, even though Beatles vs Beach Boys threads are pretty silly.

Carl was a "great one" as well imo. Perhaps not as strong of a songwriter as Dennis (certainly not as strong as Brian, but few are), but he was easily the best musician of the group and basically became the leader once Brian went bonkers. He also took the place of the chubby but really cute bearded guy singing beautiful falsettos once Brian couldn't do it anymore, gotta give him props for that.
I think if his solo albums were stronger people would give him the credit he deserves but they're admittedly weak compared to Dennis's and Brian's.
