Here's a link to an article I wrote recently that lists links to over 5,000 FREE on-line backing tracks for guitarists - mainly blues & rock, but some jazz, country & reggae too ... anyway, lots of good tracks to jam with, practice & improve your soloing, or just learn various new styles!

I personally went through each of the links & made sure that each one contains some free backing tracks - and that you can access them without having to sign up or pay for anything ... some of the sites just give you a handful of free songs & allow you to pay to have access to more, and some of the sites have hundreds or thousands of songs by your favorite artists all free!
Anyway, have fun! I hope you find this resource helpful! And I look forward to meeting & playing with some of you soon! :),
Peace,
Beth Isbell
