Often I try to search some backing tracks that are similar to a certain blues song I’m listening to. The problem is, for instance, for a song like “Mean old Frisco” B.B. King version.

Supposing I’m looking for a backing track like this track. What can I type on Youtube: is that rock and roll?? Starting from this question, I’m asking you how many blues rhythms do exist? No latin-exotic meshups like Bossa/mambo/rumba blues… Just the most typical ones: swing, jump blues, r’n’roll, twist, ragtime… Only about the first old blues (Ragtime) —> to the last result (Elvis’ and Chuck Berry’s rock and roll. NO blues-rock)
I often get confused with the differences between shuffle, fast shuffle, rockabilly, jump blues.. etc.
Can anyone name or link some pdf, articles, list, documentaries, odcasts, youtube drum loops, song examples, everything is useful to classify and give some order to the different kind of rhythms one can meet on the blues guitar path?
Thank you SO much!
