Hi Ben
For a long time I thought 'Good Vibrations' and 'God Only Knows' were wild cards in the 2000 All Time FF and that was it. However, a quick Wiki search turned up a fair few hits, including '409' (played on at least three occasions, two of them late on as well), and he seemed to like the Carl & The Passions album too. And yes, he played Pet Sounds on Radio London.
All the best
