I'll have to agree with Fender Bender and others who listen to the difference of the slide guitar tone and style between Jigsaw and Expectations. I believe it to be Keith playing on Jigsaw, always have.
Allow me to drop the following here for digestion and I'm sure some debate from folks that like to double down in their love affair with all things Brian. (Although I can not imagine why someone would claim that Mr. Jones would play such a rudimentary style of slide guitar. Thought he was more accomplished than that. Maybe he had a cold that day.)
This is written under the Jigsaw Puzzle session heading and is nicked from the book The Rolling Stones Complete Recording Sessions 1962-2002 by Martin Elliott. It is not from an online fan site.
"Nicky Hopkins, since his introduction during the SATANIC session, was beginning to contribute a more prominent role in the band's overall sound and they used him to good effect on this track. The blues feel is still retained with some fine slide guitar by Keith Richards, but the songs rhythm is controlled by Nicky Hopkins incessantly pounding on the ivory keys."
"An outtake of Jigsaw Puzzle has a different bass arrangement including Keith. Over 50 minutes of Jigsaw Puzzle is available on 11 session tracks and 14 takes illustrating how the song was built from the distinctive slide guitar and the piano playing of Nicky Hopkins"
