After I started learning there was an older dude who moved in across the street (I was 14 so older means like maybe 19?) and he played. He turned me on to Jeff Beck who was his hero. Dude was 100% blues/rock and taught me a ton of stuff.
Years later I learned Cause We've Ended as Lovers and we played it when he was at one of our gigs.
Always wondered what it must have been like for him when I blew past the stuff he was teaching me. He was a weekend warrior while I was practicing 10 hours a day back then.
