Where do you look for yours?

GuitarBT has some major issues with their servers so its almost impossible to get some of the files from there. However, if you look around on the net you can actually get some really good quality ones. My biggest issue is that too many of them dont really make use of the other modes like Dorian or Mixolydian and seem to stick to the standard I-IV-V blues progression which can seem a little repetitive.

Here are the few i've found so far that seem to be decent:

Dolphin Street
Freelicks
King Of The Blues
Guitar Voice (Need To Register)

If you know of any other good links to backing tracks or to websites please post them. It'll be nice to get a good list going. :)

Update:

Free Play Music

Found a really good website with nearly 2000 tracks for free download. Covers lots of different styles and very good quality. Not only is this aimed at guitar users, but also other instrument players because of this variation in style. :cool:

However, this isn't your conventional backing track website with well known song as such. These are all newly created tracks by professionals. Of course, some are harder to jam to than others, but some of the piano instrumentals etc are really inspiring (to me anyway). Possibly the best website i've found found so far as its not just recurring 12 bar blues :)

Edit: GuitarBT servers are all backup and running at 100% speed. :p

Please tell me what you think. :)
