BALES-GITLIN BAND SAMPLE REPERTOIRE Our repertoire is ENORMOUS (we’ve had a band for CLASSIC ROCK, MOTOWN, R&B, & SOUL 28 years!) and we add new songs all the time. This list is not even close to complete. It is a sample of Soul Man song titles, styles, composers, performers and types Respect/ Chain of Fools of music frequently requested. Mustang Sally In the Midnight Hour Please mark the songs and styles you particularly like I Heard It Through the Grapevine (or dislike!), write in any songs or artists that are Dancing in the Street especially important to you or your audience, and Same Old Song Motown return the list to us. This will help us zero in on your Ain’t Too Proud to Beg tastes in music. (However we also hope you will let Come See About Me us use our instincts and experience to respond to your Get Ready guests when we meet them!
