All three guitars were played by Keith.

Has anyone categorized the versions out there in any particular order? A guy that owns the Muscle Shoals tapes said that version is the one from the Gimme Shelter movie. I don’t hear Taylor on that one, but he supposedly played on it.

But did he play on the backing track session at all? He's not on the early Gimme Shelter-version. If he played, though, he would most likely have played in standard tuning.
Both of Keith's electric tracks are in open G.

The engineer said he played a Strat.

I think Jimmy Johnson confused a Strat with a Telecaster. Taylor said he used a Tele for the slide on You Gotta Move and can be seen with it in picture below at the session. Both Fender so an easy mistake. Btw the credit on the pic says it is Keith's Tele but this is not true, Mick had his own which he used.

I have to relisten but I hear a standard tuned guitar doubling the chords at some points. Also I think there are more guitars than three, probably layered. Taylor was at the session, we have evidence from the engineer. It would be odd for them to record this tune and tell Taylor to go to get some ciggys while they played so he must have been in the room when they jammed it out. I would imagine due to studio bleed even with baffles some of his guitar is there but them layered over by Keith.
I wish I could find the quote but Keith has said (I think referring to Soul Survivor) that there were always more guitars on the tunes that people thought. Similar with Jimmy Page and his famous guitar army, for example there are about 5 guitars doubling the riff to Black Dog.
It's pretty standard practice these days to stack guitar parts, played with different instruments and tones and Page and Richards I think are pioneers of this.

No, it's the same open G-track that is not playing the opening riff.
They didn't have many tracks to work with, so your puzzle won't add up.
Taylor played on BS at some point, we know that from the bootlegs. However, his lead/licks-guitar was replaced by Keith's second guitar where he played rhythm/licks/Berry-licks.

Two questions.
Did Mick Taylor ever enjoy being a Rolling Stone? He said in Stones in Exile doc that he found it "fun" but without much conviction and every other interview I read he doesn't seem to give much away, although he does seem to regret leaving.
Second question, if he had not left, would he have been kicked out by Mick or Keith at some point, to be replaced by Ron Wood? Keith rarely seems to have a nice word to say about him in 70s interviews but always raves about him now. However it seems Ron and Keith hit it off so well it seems only a matter of time before Ron got the gig?

I guess there are two ways to fit in being a Rolling Stone. Socially and musically. Ron fit both. MT was stronger musically. All in all their OK with Ronnie...

Taylor seemed to be spiraling a bit, but he was still contributing to their sound, especially live. He hadn't really done anything to get kicked out of the group for. We don't know if Taylor could have adjusted his playing to a funkier/disco style that they moved into with Wood. Who knows? Taylor might have been even better at it. He might have adapted quite well to the jazz infused mid to late 70s.

From the Steve Hoffman Forum:
About 15 years ago I interviewed Mick Taylor and I asked him what he was most proud of in his career, his work with John Mayall, The Stones, or his solo work. He said none of them, the highpoint for him was the 1984 tour with Dylan!

Ironically in a Crawdaddy Magazine interview in1974, months before Taylor quit, Keith was asked about comments in Anthony Scadutos biography of Jagger about Brian writing songs , he saidBrian never wrote a complete song in his life.But that he and Mick we’re working with Taylor because he thought he could be a really good writer.Of course that did not work outQuote

I definitely don’t think they would have ever kicked him out. Jagger tried to give him time off to think about it when he quit.
Funny enough, in an interview before IORR came out, Richards said he was really excited watching Taylor develop!

We know the answer to that when listening to Heartbreaker live.
