The mansion of Queen drummer, Roger Taylor, has gone on the market for $6 million.

The famous musician has listed his stunning home, situated behind a gated driveway in central Los Angeles.

The 1933 Spanish home has been restored and lovingly maintained by the rock star, who founded Queen with Freddie Mercury and Brian May in 1970.

Mercury sadly passed in 1991 at the age of 45, and for the past decade, Taylor and Adam Lambert have been collaborating as musicians, even landing a “Rhapsody” tour last year in America.
