Rock'n'Roll Circus is good as well, imo. The only time the riff sounded somewhat near the original.

I recorded the main basic acoustic on top of a backing track by someone else with vocals. This acoustic guitar, possibly with one other played by Brian on the same cassette recording is all there was as far as acoustics on JJF.

Very good IMO.
I don't know if Brian did anything except for some percussion.
Why not overdub the high parts, supposedly in Nashville tuning which would seem to be used (instead of regular tuning) mainly for the strums just before the main riff starts. maybe.
Seeing that I havn't tried recording a duplicate, I don't know if it's Nashville or Regular.

If there is more than one guitar on the philips cassette recording it would have to have been played by someone else at same time Keith played. So if there is then that'll most likley be Brian.
I don't think nashville tuning is used for any of the parts on the released version.
Maybe they tried it and it didn't make it to the final version, but there's nothing in the parts that screams nshville tuning or requires that tuning to play what is heard.
I've done the other parts, will post those too.

The playback of the recording is part of the sound.
In all 3 instances where they used the cassette recorder Keith has said they watched from the control room as the cassette played back what they had recorded on it and that was captured via a mic'd up extension speaker.
...
The part you are focusing on has low strings being played too, open E tuning, the lack of low end is from tonal settings not due to missing low notes.
That B strums with higher B are fretted like so. Pinky on high B, 6 - 4 strings fretted with 2nd and 3rd fingers.
1)--7--
2)--x--
3)--x--
4)--7--
5)--7--
6)--7--
...
The acoustic doesn't bother with any of the higher strings, it's essentially playing power chords through the whole track. As I demonstrated with my clip of the most likley only actual acoust guitar part.

There's more to the chimey stuff than just that.
Anyway, oops, I did a boobie with the acoustic part, it doesn't go to low E on the intro.

Between the arrangement used on the tour, keiths moves, the horn part, the fire on the front of the stage, and the record spinning on the video screen.....the 97-98 version (st louis, san diageo) specifically, are my very favorite versions of the song

But, with a think like JJF, all the parts would need to be put together and experimented with and possibly changed to arrive somewhere near the original, so if one part doesn't fit right then it needs to be altered to fit in with the blends of the parts according to the original.
It's no use supposing that a part is right, the parts have to be totalled up together to match the original.
That's where it gets blurred, because once parts are mixed together then they are no longer just what they were and decompiling multiple parts exactly can be just about impossible in some cases.

Nah, it's not quite as complicated as that.
The stereo version and OOPS makes it quite easy to work out which guitar does what.
Eg left speaker (some bleed from centre):
[drive.google.com]
2 guitars, one acoustic the other possibly electric
Both open E
Charlie's snare seems to be part of the cassette recording.

My favourite version is from double door club, 1997, but I can't find the video on youtube...

Was this the first song Jimmy Miller did production on for the Stones?

The only existing live version with the intro!
