Taylor1By that logic Ringo should have gotten writerscredit for A Hard Day’s Night, because Lennon said he came up with the phraseQuote

I wonder what Andrew Loog Oldham contributed to As Tears Go By and other Jagger - Richards songs that he got a writers credit. Were they for the lyrics?Whereas Brian got none for songs like Ruby Tuesday and 2000 Light Years
Didn't he change the title - from as years go by - to as tears go by?

There is no dulcimer or autoharp on Take It Or Leave It. There is a harpsichord with and without the lute stop engaged. Lute stop engaged for most of the song, disengaged for the chords heard during the la la la la sections.
It was correct first, in the chorus its harpsichord with stop and in the la la la part is nornal. Take it or leave it and Sittin on a fence would be the two songs that Brian record Harpsichord.
On Ruby Tuesday its Brian on the final recording playing main piano (apart of recorder)? Would be the only song that Brian recording on piano.

Sorry these credits are just about all bullshit.

I'd say the best possible source to what Brian played is online already - namely His Majesty's "The Brian Jones Resource":

Oldham's credit is all about royalties, it's a business agreement. The same as Nanker/Phelge, which was setup by Oldham on orders of Allan Klein to get a more steady income out of the Stones.

Re acoustic on Sympathy. I include it as it is something we know he played during the sessions, that it was recorded, but ultimately mixed out. It is slightly audible at times like you note.
Thanks re the site.. Note it is a work in progress and the information is open to change. It's been a while since I did anything on it. It needs tweaking and updating, but I've kind of ran out of steam in tandem with my interest in this project dropping.
The death of Charlie and later, Ian McDonald, another favourite musician of mine and one that I kind of got to know, has made me revaluate things. Better to put some time and focus on my own music and playing than that of Brian Jones.
