Though she’ll always be known for the hit “Midnight Train to Georgia”—even showing up on a 30 Rock performance of the song—there are plenty of other great tunes one can expect Gladys Knight to sing at her Santa Rosa show this week. “If I Were Your Woman,” the insistent “I’ve Got to Use My Imagination” and the beautiful “I Don’t Want to Do Wrong” are all songs the casual fan who got tickets as a stocking stuffer should study up on before witnessing Ms. Knight live. She’s a Mormon these days, so maybe she’ll even sing “I Hope They Call Me on a Mission” on Friday, Jan. 6, at the Wells Fargo Center. 50 Mark West Springs Road, Santa Rosa. 8pm. $46—$88. 707.546.3600.
