If Keith had played it on TV too then it it could have been either one of them. But he didn't. Since Brian had been credited with playing piano on RT before, this clip is all I need to actually give him the credit. That's what I believe and I don't judge it by the clip alone.Quote

The amateurish playing style and technique fits Brian more than Jack and, as HM said, if it was Jack then Keith would have mentioned him already. Others, like you, may disagree. I don't mind as I love to hear what other people think.

He´s only toying a bit with the stuff, and not even playing the same things.

Great idea for a series of topics, HM. Much appreciated!
Me too would love to get the musicians credits as correct as possible!
You haven´t credited percussion on (most of) the tracks,
and it´s probably very hard to pin down, so I´m not going into that either.
Anyway, the first single:
Have You Seen Your Mother, Baby, Standing in the Shadow?
Mick Jagger - vocals
Keith Richards - electric and acoustic guitar, bass guitar, piano, vocals
Charlie Watts - drums
Jack Nitzsche - piano
(Uncredited brass musicians)??? - trumpets
Who's Driving Your Plane?
Mick Jagger - vocals
Keith Richards - electric guitar
Brian Jones - harmonica
Bill Wyman - bass guitar
Charlie Watts - drums
Ian Stewart - piano
Have You Seen...:
*This is the first I´ve heard/read that Keith is playing bass. Why is it not Bill, in your opinion?
*Possibly there´s also guitar by Brian here. On the early outtake/mix you can hear a slide-ish guitar, which is almost buried in the final mix. That´s a guitar that could be Brian.
*40 Licks/Aeppli/Zentgraf credits piano to Stu, not Jack. Do you know that they are wrong?
*And, is there really two pianos on it?
Who´s Driving...:
*Aeppli/Zentgraf credits piano to Jack, not Stu. Wrong?
Hopefully, we can all help getting as much as possible correct!><

I avoided crediting percussion most of the time because it could in reality be anyone.
Nah, that rough electric on the outtake version is Keith. I think I recall reading Keith saying he played bass and piano on it. I don't hear Stu on Have You Seen Your Mother, Baby, Standing in the Shadow? but, if there's a quote or something by a band member saying it's him, groovy.
I'd say naive but not stupid. As I said, I don't judge it by the clip alone. The clip was the final thing for me to give Brian credit for the piano.Quote

But basing it on that tv clip would be stupid, imo. He´s only toying a bit with the stuff, and not even playing the same things.

To me it sounds like he mostly play what he did on the recorded version...

His bass parts are similar to that of the recording, no doubt about it.

Andrew Loog Oldham on Have You Seen Your Mother...?: (from 2Stoned)
...I did get the pleasure...of joining Mick and Keith as the ´singing guitars´ needed to choral the start-me-up to ´Have You Seen Your Mother, Baby, Standing In The Shadows?´ /
We were mixing down to mono and...each time we heard the intro it sounded just that little bit lamer. / Then I had an idea...
`Why can´t we go na-na-nanana-nana with our voices, throat up, no body, noses on hold, in unison with the guitars?´ /
Keith agreed. ´Who´s going to do it, Andrew?´
´You, me and Mick - and Charlie can tell us how it feels.´ / Mick and Keith practised sounding ridiculous. I already had that down. /
Dave ran the tape and we pulled it together in two. We looked at each other, then towards the control room.
Charlie shook his head, then looked up with a grin. ´I dunno, you guys. You´re all mad, but it works.´
It´s there at the intro of the released track.
