You ask good questions. What I would do is try to get an actual date when Hendrix was at the Record Plant and see if the Stones had anything going on that date. In other words, if they were at Olympic recording part of Beggars Banquet it would be speculative as to whether Brian was in New York at the Record Plant. Or maybe the Stones were doing the NME Poll Winners Concert on that date.
I read about Brian dropping by Olympic when Hendrix was there recording "All Along The Watchtower" and he played sloppy piano, which was not on the final take. I believe that outtake of "All Along The Watchtower" was released on a Hendrix CD called Southern Delta Blues or something like that. I have the CD.
Also, just for the record, did you know Brian did play on three recording by Peter & Gordon. Brian plays harmonica on "A Mess Of The Blues" and "Love Me Baby" from the album titled In Touch With Peter And Gordon from 1964. On the first song he goes back and forth with Gordon Waller on harmonica. He also played wither piano or guitar on one of their singles a few years later.
