The guitarist and wife Patti Hanson have owned the pad for three years, paying around £8million for it back in 2014, according to the .

A source told the publication: “It’s an exquisite apartment.

“What makes it so unusual is that it has rock and roll touches and high-end modern finishes - in a classic, prewar building.”

Along with the vinyl records and union flag print, other wall art includes a painted caption on the wall which reads: "You're never too young to rock and roll" - perhaps a pertinent reminder of the rocker's 73 years.
