Blues /rock: music recommendations?

I find that I really enjoy rock/pop that involves a lot of crossover into BLUES. I like all Dire Straits, but particularly "Brothers in Arms," as well as the Moody Blues. The CD I am currently listening to the most frequently is Steve Winwood's latest, "About Time," which exhibits strong blues influences.
There must be a number of other fine recordings in this rock/blues "genre", (if it qualifies as such!) that I am not aware of. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks!
Steve

'Layla' by Dereck and the Dominoes with Clapton and Duane Allman. Later Janis Joplin. A new one, that I have only heard one cut from, is 'I'm A Bluesman' by Johnny Winter.
Can you tell that I really like this genre ?

This double CD is a must have.

COLOSSEUM LIVE March 1971, Dave "Clem" Clempson rules
Humble Pie: "Smokin´" 1972 Clempson rules

Be careful, these are HEAVY STUFF

He was voted for 4th best guitarist in NME, right after JH, EC and JB.
You will not be disappointed.
