Check out the 2 Jeff Beck Group albums for some excellent 60's UK blues. Rod Stewart sounds great and the musicianship is killer.

Its hard for us to understand how bands like Jeff Beck and the Who changed everything when they started showing up at gigs with guitar stacks and PAs, up to that time bands played on little amps. of course that later allowed promoters to put bands in enormous stadiums with huge stacks of amps that sounded like shit. But lots of money was to be made...

Those first Jeff Beck Group albums have always interested me a lot, but there has always been many other albums...but I think in the near future I will listen them! I think you also like the Faces, I have only Ooh La Laa, but also have a great interest of other bands albums.
