    Kenny Wayne Shepherd is my go-to. 

    I have lots of love for SRV, Allman Brothers and Zeppelin as well.

    Damn, "You Shook Me" covered by Zep is AMAZING- love the keys, the slide guitar (assuming it is slide), Plant is on...

    To tough to choose.  For blues/rock, probably Jimi Hendrix, but right up there is John Mayall and the Bluesbreakers, Cream, Harvey Mandel, Paul Butterfeild Blues Band, and, of course The Rolling Stones.
     
    All of whom owe their fame and fortune, of course, to the real blues giants like,
    Charlie Patton
    Robert Johnson
    Blind Lemon Jefferson
    Rev. Gary Davis
    Son House
    John Lee Curtis "Sonny Boy" Williamson
    Alex Miller aka Sonny Boy Williamson II
    Leadbelly
    Big Bill Broonzy
    Howlin' Wolf
    Lightnin' Hopkins
    Otis Rush
    Mississippi John Hurt
    J. B. Lenoir
    Elmore James
    Muddy Waters
    B. B. King
    T-Bone Walker
    John Lee Hooker
    Buddy Guy
    Taj Mahal

    And others I can't think of right off the top of my head.
