Big part of my musical youth, Saturday Club being almost mandatory listening in it’s heyday and of course he hosted Sounds of the 60’s for very many years until quite recently. I’ve got some Saturday Club recordings on reel to reel that I should drag up and have a listen to again.
RIP Brian.
Very sad indeed, You don't have by any chance the Rolling Stones session broadcast on 18 April 1964, including Hi Heeled Sneekers and Beautiful Delilah? I manage to build a complete version of Hi Heeled Sneekers from various sources, listen to it here:

The trouble was that I like many others, had my reel to reel in pause record until a session song was announced, then quickly released the pause button - unfortunately sometimes Brian did his announcement after the music had started!
