List your favorite ten blues songs performed by British bands/recording artists?

or as performed by a band/recording artist of any nationality while on British soil, e.g. the Jimi Hendrix Experience. Think Rolling Stones, Manfred Mann, Steve Winwood, Taj Mahal, etc. This is to celebrate the 600th Sunday Morning Blues show aired on WZLX Boston (Mass., USA) 101.7 FM. You can submit your list here or directly to the great Carter Allen at WZLX. So what have you got?

Kelly, thank you!!!!! Those performances rock. Roger Daltrey has one of the great raw voices in rock and blues history. You can tell it's him singing from a mile away! Rory Gallagher is outstanding too. Many thanks for your good taste.

Update 3:

Thank you Groundhog. All wonderful suggestions!!! I just listened to Jeremy Spender doing Red Hot Mama from a performance at The Boston Tea Party around 1970 and then Canned Heat from a London show in 1970. They don't perform like that any more. Then I was listening to Keith Richards and Faces (Rod Stewart) do an acoustic version of Dust My Broom. Very uptempo when compared to the Elmore James version and absolutely great. Richards was an amazingly handsome guy back then. I have Eric Clapton and Jimmy Page doing Freight Loader over Draggin My Tale. Both great songs. Thanks again!

Update 5:

Thank you woogieman for your selections. There is no doubt that Gary Moore and Paul Lamb can play the blues. I came across Gary Moore and BB King performing "Since I Met You Baby" and a number of great performances between Paul Lamb and Louisiana Red. Peter Green has some great collaborations with Fleetwood Mac, John Mayall, Santana and others. I thought Katie Melua's cover of Canned Heat's "On The Road Again" was unexpectedly moving. I've thought about how it from the female perspective. She's also great on "What I Miss About You," which begs for a bluesier treatment. I screwed up and combined the radio frequencies from WZLX and WBCN. BCN is 104.1 FM and a shell of the station it once was. It's sister station is ZLX, which is now the better station, and whose FM frequency is 100.7. But when I visited the WZLX radio website I could not find a way of submitting song selections to Carter Allen's Sunday Morning Blues. In the old days you could call a radio station and a human being would
