Do you want to learn an actual song with all the proper melodic phrases etc or do you want to learn how to play blues leads, in general?

My favorite electric blues players are Muddy Waters, Howlin Wolf and John Lee Hooker

Muddy is really quite tough to pull off if your just starting out.

When I was learning, I would play along with records that had a fairly standard blues progression and then try to play lead on top

For example, I would listen to the Grateful Dead's version of Big Boss Man over and over while trying to play with the changes. I didnt have the Jimmy Reed version back then. Either version is good to play on top of though

To really get it down, your gonna have to get some rhythm tracks on CD to play with...do a search and youll find plenty of instructional CD/DVDs out there

Also, if you can purchase a loop pedal and then record a I IV V rhythm track to play along with you will progress rapidly. We didnt have loop pedals when I started so it wasnt until college that I actually had another guitar to play along with that wasnt a record
