Outstanding piece.

That said, there is one mistake I noticed: Carl didn't handle the lead after Brian - it's Al who sang the song. But all in all, kudos to Mr. Zahl for this fascinating writing! And thanks to whoislikegod for bringing it up to this board!

I didn't notice this detail the first time that I read it but it looks like the author changed it.  It now says that Al took the lead.

A bit off topic, but Bruce sounds great on "Please Let Me Wonder" and the Brian-falsetto on "I Get Around" in this clip.
