Need advice on dances to recommend for songs

Hi - I am hosting a dance soon and collected song titles that the participants want to hear. Is there a good place to get advice on what dance to encourage for a particular song (e.g. Dean Martin's "Volare" from 1958)? Hoping there's a web site I am missing that might help fill in the blanks for me or someone who might be willing to look at a list of 15 to 20 songs (all popular tunes from the past) and make me smarter about them. Let me know if you have thoughts, thanks! M.E.K. (e-mail ok to: Ykanti at yahoo dot com)

At the opening page towards the bottom you will see several Albums . If you click on any one you will find a list of the songs which are on it. Click again and you will hear a few seconds of the song you have chosen.

A search on the Web will turn up several lists organized the opposite way: a list of Foxtrots, of Rumbas, etc. That should be of some help. Then you can prepare a set list of the songs you will play, and suggest what dance to do with each.
