a favorite of mine is Akos, by Ronnie Earl, via Jason Ricci:

he does a number of other instrumentals that could
work: Wake County Stomp, Baked Potato, Sonja. or, if
you're ambitious, Afro Blue.

i'm working on several favorite Hot Tuna instrumentals,
Embryonic Journey and Water Song.

none of these are harp songs, but they could be,
and the stretch is good for me.
