I know you're looking for tunes with harp in them ,
but there are many blues/rock and rockabilly type
tunes that are easy to play harp to.
Matchbox - Carl Perkins
House is a Rockin - SRV
How about getting the band to play a short fast
shuffle that you and the guitar player can play off of
each other. This gives the vocalist a break and
potentially get the crowd hopping.
Slow it down with:
Redhouse - Hendrix
Knockin' on Heaven's door - Dylan
Put a Candle in the Window - CCR
Maybe throw in some 'real' blues. A lot of classic
rock has blues roots and if your audience is listening
to 'classic rock' I'm sure they'll get off on some
blues.
Hope this helps and good luck!
