Well, I got into the Stones' music by way of Wandering Spirit, and the song that did it for me was Out Of Focus. I'm not sure if that's his best solo song, because there is more good stuff on that album, and Throwaway should have been a hit. Honorary mention goes to Everybody Getting High for the funny lyrics.
I didn't put Memo From Turner since its credited to Mick and Keith and appears on Stones albums, even though technically you can make a case that its just Mick. But there is a Stones version.

I'm not talking about the Stones version (which was released 5 years later by Allen Klein).
I'm talking about the real version. The one intened as the definitvie one - the one from Performance, the movie which is was written for and used in. The one released as a single by "Mick Jagger" not "The Rolling Stones".
The real verison is a Mick Jagger song, not a Rolling Stones song. Keith's name in the credits alone doesn't make it a Stones song anymore than Lonely at the Tops is a Stones song.
Yes - there is a Stones version, but the real and best version is Mick Jagger, solo!.

I'm afraid if I say "I like some songs on Goddess" Keith will light a flaming bag of dogshit in my doorway

yeah - his vast body of work since 1992 has been so much more plentiful and superior and gives him the right to bitch about Mick's songwriting output...!
