I read once Tattoo You is supposed to sound or stand for something raunchy. Can’t recall.
Of the many possible names at the time the one that started to stick was Tattoo. For some reason no one seems to be able to remember was You was added. It's a good thing it was because Tattoo You is better than Tattoo.
So it's arbitrary. There's no de Forum: Tell Me
Meanwhile in the US there are a ton of much older names that are coming back like Henry, Levi, Oliver, Theodore, Noah, Elijah, Liam, Sebastian, Ezra etc. and that’s just for boys.

Sounds like Jagger on guitar, Stu on piano, and Mick Taylor on bass. This is in line with Jagger's quote:
"I remember Silver Train, I think we recorded in London, and I remember Mick and I jamming on that. That was just a jam we managed to make into a song in the end. It started off as a jam rather than a song that was pre-written."

There were multiple reasons given for Wyman’s lack of contribution. In an interview they said his bass was out of tune on the basic tracks. Another reason I’ve read was of the break-in and assault he and his wife experienced. So they left.
Winter was the first track cut in Jamaica.
Angie was cut to an 8-track machine.

On Time Waits for No One maybe a bit during the ascending outro line towards 6:00.
Not only because he has more distortion, compared to the beginning of the ascending line at 1:44, but also a bit more more bas, which could be the Octivader used, limited though. Again not entirely sure.

I guess he used the Octivider in the studio, for example on Time Waits for No One.
With Herbie Mann in the Studio it looks like Taylor has the Octivider in front of his left foot.

According to a 1973 tour article: Mick Taylor has three pedals on the floor: Sustainer, Octivider, and Wah-Wah Pedal.

The Robin Millar/Taylor dynamic is fascinating. Taylor produced Millar as a new artist and attempted to secure him a record deal. It turned out Millar became a fantastic producer and extremely successful and wealthy. Forum: Tell Me
I believe Stu plays the piano on Walk With Me Wendy.
I think Potted Shrimp could be Stu, but it may be Bobby Whitlock or even Stephen Stills himself. On the tape list there isn’t a piano player listed, and I’m sure Stu would have said something as he was involved in the tech side of the band. Forum: Tell Me

A lot of lineups are educated guesswork. Sometimes even the players don’t remember who played on what.
For instance, Nicky Hopkins is listed on Potted Shrimp but it sounds more like Stu (even Stephen Stills or Bobby Whitlock)
