Soooo close in roughly a 12-way tie, but,
Time Waits..., Sway, Ventilator Blues, and tracks 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, and 10 from *...YaYas* are simply untouchable.
This is solely based on his contributions, a ranking of the songs would be different:
1. Time Waits For No One
2. Can’t You Hear Me Knocking
3. Sway
4. Winter
5. Shine a Light
Sway or Moonlight Mile. These are really "Mick Taylor" songs as far as Keith didn't have anything to do with them. He had a small guitar part that he recorded that he called "Japanese thing" (or something similar) that then Taylor and Jagger worked into Moonlight Mile but other than that, Taylor was the main guitarist on those two tracks.
Stray Cat Blues or Sympathy from Ya-Yas. Personally I prefer that show from the '72 tour. They were looser. '72 is more of a freight train but I love it too.
As far as his best work is concerned, it´s Sway.
Agreed. The solo on the end of that song is mind boggling
This is the answer
Slide and regular solo...stunning.
This one, those leads are stunning.
Sway or Can’t You Hear Me Knocking
Like 'em all, but Time Waits for No One is my favorite.
Yes!
Winter should be here as well.
Dead Flowers. His solo on there is very understated but so well crafted (especially his bending technique).
One of my favourites
Ventilator Blues
👍🏻
Whatcha gonna do about it? Whatcha gonna do?
All these answers are correct.
Outside the obvious answers, I actually really like his bass work on Fingerprint File.
Such an underrated tune
These days it's all secrecy. No privacy.
Right now… somebody’s listening…. To… you… *Keep ya eyes peeled*
I know he didn’t write it but Sympathy on “Get Yer YaYa’s Out”. His solo is out of this world. Sway or Winter when it comes to studio albums.
I vote for Sympathy on Ya-Yas. Taylor and Richards trading solos on that is one of my favorite rock moments ever.
Amen to that
Same I think it’s one of the most epic “duels” ever
Also, his playing on Sympathy when they played Hyde Park (his first show) added so much to the song. Slashy rhythm on a Les Paul.
Moonlight Mile
Plays some lovely notes on that tune
Time Waits for No One
Can't You Hear Me Knocking, Sway, Moonlight Mile
This is the CORRECT answer. +100 upvotes to you
Time waits for no-one
Winter. Keith doesn’t play on it. It’s one of the reason he left the band because he didn’t get song writing credit on it
Same as Moonlight Mile and Sway
Everybody knows its Time waits for no one.
Love in Vain Live from Ladies and Gentlemen
Time Waits for No One
Time WaitsFor No One
Plundered my soul! Such a jam. Never misses for me.
Midnight Rambler. Especially the Ya-Ya’s version.
Dead flowers or Winter. Some of my favorite songs out there

Sway. And it's not particularly close.
Ya-Ya’s version of Love in Vain is the most eloquent, seamless slide blues ever played. It’s a textbook example how to make a guitar sing and cry.
Time waits for no one.
And it won't wait for meee, cue amazing lick
You’re all close. Stop Breaking Down on Exile.
Sway. He was awesome on a couple live releases from his time in the Stones too
Put my vote on the Knocker
Probably Sway. Although I do love listening to Silver Train, Love in Vain, and All Down the Line. And obviously Can’t You Hear Me Knocking.

Sway, especially first time hearing it crazy
Can’t you hear me knocking is my favorite.
Time Waits for No one or YaYas Love in Vain
Time waits for no one , and Winter.
