Singer Mick, 80, and guitarist Keith, 79, started a band in Dartford, Kent, in 1961, taking The Glimmer Twins as a nickname.

That is what Amy Goodman called her work, which stands in the town centre.

It was unveiled by her, along with members of Keith’s family and council leader Jeremy Kite, who said: “Wherever they are in the world, it’s clear that Sir Mick and Keith never forget their origins.

“They have proudly worn their Straight Outta Dartford T-shirts in front of tens of thousands.”

Amy added: “To get the opportunity to sculpt these icons, whose music I love, has been overwhelming, mind-blowing and emotional.”

Building firm Bellway London paid for the statue.
