Yep, Love waiting on a friend and the video :-)
Heaven was for me the big surprise when I got this album. I had heard about half of it, but I loved Heaven from the first time I heard it. I wouldn't have thought the album went that deep as far as quality tracks. Heaven is a great showcase for Mick and the band.
I must say, I never guessed that this was a compilation album until I realized it at least 10 years later. They did a good job of hiding it.

Side 2 f_cking rules. It's right up there with side 2 of Exile. A cohesive piece of music right through that just blends perfectly together like grandma's best apple pie, the flow of the songs, Jagger's vocals, simply put incredible.

Overdubs by Jagger (and supposedly some by Keith) were done in 1980 and Jagger, Rollins, Mike Carabello etc in 1981. There were no band new recordings done in either of those years as you have listed, Dande! All of the bottoms to this album are from the 1970s!

Did I state there were new band recordings?
«New recordings» are the first overdubs by Jagger (not Keith, I think).
«Overdubbed and mixed» is the last overdubs by Rollins, Carabello etc.
This is taken from McPherson @ timeisonourside.com, though.

Ah yes, I see that. However, you did post it!
New recordings, in this case, is the band laying down bottoms (aka tracking or, ha ha, recording), and according to nzentgraf, that's not the case!

I always think of it as their outstanding great album. Their best since Exile. The weakest song is T&A, and it still is very good.

Ronnie is not playing a lot on Tattoo You. He is missing in action on Hang Fire, Slave, Worried About You, Tops, Heaven and Waiting On A Friend.
But he more than weighs up for it with the lovely solos on Black Limousine

Ronnie plays bass on Hang Fire. Slave is obvious - he wasn't at the session for that in 1975, Tops and Waiting On A Friend (which, last I knew, is actually Mick Taylor-less regarding the LP version) - well, ha ha, he wasn't there for the GHS sessions...
Ronnie plays guitar on 5 songs and bass on one. Kind of like some of the recent albums...

True, but he played guitar on all the songs on SG and most on ER, save Let Me Go and perhaps Where The Boys Go.

nzentgraf says he played guitar on Let Me Go as well as guitar and bass on Where The Boys Go.
I find it funny that Keith stated that they didn't have time to record a new album even though for all of 1980 and 1981 The Rolling Stones did not record any new music. Of course Mick was working on what would become ER in late 1979 and possibly January 1980 but they still could've recorded a new album.
Mick finished TATTOO YOU in May, the tour started in late September, the album came out in late August.
Certainly TATTOO YOU is fine.
