A relatively slow rendition, but hopefully showing some improvement since last time around:
I'd love to hear your thoughts!

Sounds nice, I like the little trills and things you added to the head. The solo had a good flow to it.

Thanks Allan!

Sounds great to me. Lovely tone and groove!

Thanks! The comping is actually a backing track from youtube - that's Jens Larsen playing. I've been working on the phrasing a bit these last few weeks, so it's great that you can hear an improvement in that department.
I've found recording video on my Mac along with both the guitar and a backing track from the computer to be a bit of a pain. There ae some audio drivers that will mix two inputs together, but the last one I tried kept screwing up the audio on my Zoom meetings and eventually stopped working. Now I get the backing track into GarageBand, and play it back from there. I have the Mac output set to headphones, and then feed that signal into an input on my Axe FX. Guitar goes into the other Axe FX input, and then into a model of a Fender Princeton. The signal from the Mac goes directly through to the output of the Axe FX. I can adjust the relative volumes of the two tracks on the Axe FX, or just use the Mac's volume for the backing track. But it never occurred to me to do that. The output from Axe FX goes into the input on the Mac via USB. And then I record using iMovie.

I always shoot the footage and record the audio using separate software (Quicktime and Logic) and then synch up afterwards.

I've tried that a couple of times but struggled to get the synch to be particularly accurate. How do you manage that?

Is the backing track is a C blues instead of F?
Somethings going on there.
Otherwise keep at it! Awesome

I think there's something up with the backing track's baseline. Sounds like it's in C to me even if the comping is guide tone voicings of an F blues.
The clashes are likely do to you playing the melody in the same range of the comp. With this backing track it would probably sound better playing the melody down the octave. Or find a backing track that plays below where you're voicing the melody. Or just continue on and don't sweat it.
