I'm fairly new to keyboarding and I'm trying to have a good mix of songs for different styles and voices. I stick mainly to piano voices on most songs but I like the organ voices and would like to play more songs with them. I've come up with a few such as:
A Whiter Shade of Pale - Procal Harum
Presence of the Lord - Eric Clapton
All La Glory - The Band
Let It Be - Beatles
Also a few that sound good to me, like I Shall Be Released by Bob Dylan.
Can someone give me suggestions of songs that either were played on organ or sound good with the organ voices? Any era including standards will do. And Thanks. Great Forum here.

House of the Rising Sun comes to mind.
Also Booker T.'s Green Onions and Bill Doggett's Honky Tonk.

Wondeful Tonight - Clapton
Me & Mrs. Jones - Billy Paul
Good Lovin' - Rascals
any 60's three-chord song - Sloopy, Louie, etc.
lots of new country stuff - Toby Keith, Brooks & Dunn, Kenny Chesney, Alan Jackson
any Jimmy Buffet, but don't forget the marimbas too

DonM and all,
Thanks for the suggestions. I know a few of these songs already and I agree that they'll sound good for organ.
