Wow. Tall order.
Some of the very vintage harp players (pre-Sonnyboy Williams) recorded absolutely solo at times, but that was well before Chicago Blues or anything we know today as modern bluesharp. If there are any, I don't know, or remember them, although I've heard such recordings years ago.
The only thing I know to tell you is to check out some early Sonny Terry, which is more folk blues than anything. He did a number of solo recordings,
just him and his harp.
