I don't know, he may have been able to play a large number of instruments but he hardly put his stamp of authority on the Stones. and as that was the only band he was in and was HIS band, I can only judge him on that.

Most people seem to think the Stones recorded their best stuff with Mick Taylor on guitar.
If you can play as many instruments as he could, you're pretty damn talented in my opinion. More talented than most people. He wasn't a talented songwriter, but he was a talented instrumentalist.
