Does anyone know what tracks Andy worked on for the 1986 album, Notorius?

I think you are right John.
Andrew use the search option it must give you a discussion of not too many months ago.

This is the info on Duran Duran Wiki:
'According to interviews, Andy Taylor was involved in a lot of early sessions. Although no one remembers which songs feature Andy, a track is available on andytaylor.com, in which Andy plays guitar and sings vocals for "A Matter Of Feeling".

according to Trevgreg I was actually looking this up the other day, and came across this in a FAQ on the DD Timeline site... 2. What Notorious tracks did Andy play on? Apparently no one is clear on this matter, not even the band. Andy was in the studio for some of the initial recording of the Notorious tracks, and laid down some guitar parts that were later incorporated into the final mix. Cyndi Glass, having spoken to Warren on the subject summarized her findings in the Warren FAQ: (http://www.cuccurullo.tv/) Nile Rodgers plays the majority of the guitar on the Notorious album and all of it on the Notorious single. Andy Taylor came in for one or two sessions. Near the end of recording, Warren was hired to finish up. You can hear him particularly in the solos of American Science, and he also says that he played on Hold Me, Vertigo, and "two songs that I don't remember." Several songs have more than one guitar track, played by more than one person as well. And further clarification from Warren in March 2003: "hi. well, on american science i did the e-bow solo. it has long sustained notes. i also played all guitars on hold me, power chords & a distorted harmony part in the bridges of skin trade, some heavy distorted guitars on vertigo. jt played some rhythm parts, nile played all the funky rhythm stuff & some distorted accent type parts on notorious. andy definitely played on matter of feeling, & the other american science solo. i don't know if anything else andy did was erased, (i highly doubt that), but aside from the 2 tracks that i mentioned, it was my impression at the time of the sessions that all other guitars were nile, or, to a much lesser extent, jt." www.melodicrock.com/interviews/andytaylor.html

from Ask Katy's FAQ www.duranduran.com/wordpress/2001/ask-katy-faq/Exactly which songs did Andy play on for the NOTORIOUS record? This is a question under much discussion, for which there is no real answer. Andy played on various tracks, as did Warren and Nile Rogers. What music of Andy’s was actually used and on which songs, no one seems to know. He could very possibly be playing on parts of some songs, or not at all. and from a couple of Ask Katys (Katies?) ;-) Monday, 20 May 2002 Hi Katy, Great to see the Fab Five together again. I have a question for Andy. I think I once heard that Andy played on four tracks of the Notorious album. I’m quite certain that two of those are Notorious and American Science. I’m very curious what the other two tracks are. Bye bye, Wouter “I cannot remember what I played on for the Notorious album, perhaps somebody can find out for me, I know its sad but its true.AT.” Monday, 17 February 2003 Hi Katy! My question is for Andy Taylor. Andy, I noticed that you were credited on the album “Notorious”, and I also read somewhere that you played guitar on at least four songs(I believe it was four songs), on that album. Do you by any chance remember which songs you played guitar on??? Duran Duran’s #1 Fan, Sarah “Yes, I did play on some of the Notorious album, under duress I have to add, but I can’t for the life of me remember specifically which tracks. I feel a quiz coming on… I wonder if anybody actually knows this. Andy T.”

From what I know for sure:
Andy played on American Science, Matter of Feeling and Vertigo.
He also played on a rough version of Hold Me, but I think these parts were then rerecorded and additional parts added as the song morphed into its final version, therefore I don't think Andy is on the final Hold Me.
Same goes for Vertigo - he may or may not be in the final album mix, although they are his parts. His parts can be heard in full on the two remixes.
The Matter of Feeling demo is actually Simon on vocals - this is a mistake based on the demo being transferred from its source at the wrong speed, and according to some great articles that have detailed researches on this periods recording session, the guitar can't be played by Andy either. I'm quite sure that Andy only played on the slow album version.
As far as I know, he doesn't play on any of the other tracks.
