Bach organ recordings

The Milwaukee Symphony has been sponsoring a series performances around the area in honor of Bach's birthday. I attended two organ recitals that were just fantastic. I don't have any recordings of Bach's organ music and would like to get some. Can anyone recommend some good performances that are also recorded well?

With much gratitude.

If you're into LP-Bach series of Marcel Dupre @ Eglise St. Sulpice-France 1960/Mercury label.

I have volume 1& 2. 

E Power Biggs -Bach Favorites 1961 Columbia  Masterworks

Sonically not as good as Dupre on Mercury, but still enjoyable

Beautiful  music and a real test for any turntable(speed stability)and setup.

Oh, geez, I forgot to mention that I am all digital, so only CDs please. But, thanks, tablejockey, for taking time to reply. Perhaps other tablejockeys can make use of your suggestions.

Sorry for omission.
