My previous Jazz Masterclass went a bit wrong because some people used it to start a flame war and turned it into shit.
Still, that's not the end of it. I'm making a similar thing on my blog where people can't make flame wars and I can moderate comments if needed.
So, few words to cover some theoretical stuff:
I strongly recommend to take a look over musictheory.net and 8notes.com/theory.
For more specific jazz theory there are some useful links also, tamingthesaxophone.com/jazz-theory and jazz-styles.com (website in French, but Google translator can fix the problem).
And now the lessons + backing tracks:
1 - Blues Tutorial - jazz theory, 3 free backing tracks, 2 famous jazz standards and a rock/ shuffle blues, music sheet.
2 - Cantaloupe Island Jazz Tutorial - backing track, info about song, music sheet.
3 - Blue Bossa Jazz Tutorial & Free Backing Track
4 - Footprints Jazz Tutorial & Free Backing Track
5 - II-V-I Exercises for Trumpet (Bb)

Great stuff. It's too bad about the masterclasses. I really liked the idea but too much debate arose I suppose.
Definitely checking out the bossa one. I had to play My Little Suede Shoes by Charlie Parker in one of my ensembles a few months back, had a lot of fun with that style.
