Just listen to most blues rock.

Also, try a band called the Cat Empire. Not really rock, more jazzy/latin, but still awesome piano playing.

Derek and the Dominos - Layla.

Also, have a look for Freebird posted on YouTube by returnthisserve7. Fantastic piano work.

The entire song was built around that piano riff.

Underground - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4d-mLKlEuQY

His early solo stuff was quite rocky too.
