Taylor starts playing slide at the 17 second mark on Rocks off and can be heard at various parts of the song, like doing a walk down into the chorus.
Good grief. Just attentively listened to that. I always thought it was a mess of piano. But you're right, it's a little descending thing with almost no tone to it buried in the mix!

Check out Torn & Frayed at like 2:22 to 2:24. I'm listening in headphones and it is very faint towards the left side, but that same line in the outro is being played, in addition to Richards' guitar. Then listen to Torn & Frayed in Vancouver. Same licks.
I stand by Taylor playing electric guitar on that song. I've never heard Richards do anything like that outro.
*Actually you can hear the licks in at least the last two choruses.

Those are very simple licks, and could have been played by anyone - but there is something familiar about that vibrato
I must admit I've never heard those licks before. Buried pretty deep underneath Keith's guitar. Sounds like something bleeding from an earlier take, before Al recorded his?

The licks at the end do not sound very much like a guitar to me, it's sounds like a low tenor steel pan.

Dang, yer right! I hadn't noticed either. There's definitely a guitar there, quite clear during the intro but also noticable at for example 0:56, 1:05 and 2:48. It's also audible from 3:50 onwards and you can hear how it transforms into that well known outro solo in the fadeout.
Love this about Exile (and Beggars Banquet and to a lesser degree other Stones albums) ... all the multi-layered stuff to discover.

Yeah it is - it's the guitar that sounds sort of like a muted trumpet. It comes in at :05 and then does a descending lick run right before the drums kick in.

If only our ladies knew that we spend hours speculating on a few seconds of "muted trumpets" or "tenor steel pans" ...

Listen to the outro of this version:
It is a different mix than the Exile version. The melodic lines in the outro are mixed way more upfront, and I don't know what it is, but to me it sounds most like a steel pan. Of course it could be anything -a organ through a echo pan, a marimba through an echo chamber, I don't know. But it doesn't sound like a guitar.

Loving Cup outro = Steel pans.
If I recall correctly Jimmy Miller is noted as percussionist the track, and as long as we say steel pans are perc, its him playing.

on Jeff Back -we used to have great fun routing a microphone through a series of guitar effects pedals through a loud Marshall amp, and then we would fart in turns through the microphone.
That's just how Jeff Beck sounds.

Steel drums, or whatever percussion, on Loving Cup definitely gives it that creole sound. Torn & Frayed there is another electric guitar, which I believe to be Mick Taylor.
On a side note, there is a really cool Hendrix style blues lick, probably done on the A and low E strings, somewhere towards the end of Loving Cup. I thought it may have been Taylor, but I think it is Richards. I love low register licks like that on guitar.

Please tell me where you hear this
I´ve been fiddling with the frequency scope all evening and can´t find it ...
I do have found some really nice backup vocals from Keith and an amazing pedal steel track.
The way I see it the "main" electric goes on thoughout the track but is cleverly faded out during the high legato/sustain licks from the pedal steel at approx.3.53.
Keith does some great pulloff licks with that main electric during the last verse starting at 2.37.
The first time I hear the doublestop coda guitar is at 3.41, and then it sweeps into the mix at full force at 3.53. Some of these licks is introduced /foreshaddowed in the main electric during "steal your heart away" at 2.30 and 3.15.
The coda guitar sounds like a standard overdub. Probably the main electric guitar was recorded all the way to the end and then Miller decided to do a classic Stones coda where something new is introduced at the very end making you want more.
If my life depended on it I would say both the main electric and the little coda lick at the end is played with the same guitar and the lovingly clumsily/raw/organic quality make me believe its Richards all the way.
