LP for fathers day ideas please............

With fathers day coming up I want to get my dad a new album, he has over 3,000 but hasnt purchased a new one since CD'S came about. He plays records daily and with his new cart and pretty new system I want to get him something dynamic and engaging, he has 6000+ cd's so he will likely have most anything in his collection (Classical, Opera, and World music), For background he studied the Pipe Organ for years so something with Organ or just great Classical is my goal and around $30-$40 so I am asking for ideas because although I have a few hundred Classical titles I am nowhere near compitent enough to guess what is good by names so plesse help! cheers

Chadnliz,

Fathers Day in the USA is the 15th but In Lithuania, Austria and Belgium it's the 7th or 8th. Maybe Jloveys is an Audiogon member from there.

The good news? If you miss buying dad a gift on the 15th in the USA, the 17th is correct for El Salvador and Guatemala, or you can choose anywhere between June 23rd and December 5th, claiming Fathers Day for anywhere between Poland to Thailand.

Think of it as a way to never be too early or too late.

No globalisation with father's day ! It is today here in Belgium and my new album is wonderful. I have a very cool family, living with tons of LP's all over the place and postman ringing for e-Bay delivery all day long must be difficult sometimes!

It seems like these other countries should sync with the USA on these types of holidays. What if your dad lives in Belgium but you live in the USA, it would be a complete mess. :)

Chad, let us know what you got and how your dad liked it.

So why should other countries sync with the US? Did this idea come from the egocentric Bush Administration? If this truly presents a problem, why not select a new date for everyone?

Back on topic, Chad it will be fun to hear what you chose and your father's reaction.
