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

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.

I put my money where my mouth is and ordered the 45 rpm "A Meeting By the River" from Acoustic Sounds (for my own Father's Day present) not long after I posted the suggestion. From the reviews and excerpts I've read, it sounds like this may be one of the best-sounding LP/EPs out there, ever! On top of that, I've heard the CD and like the music. I've been a Ry fan for over 30 years.

Well as many know I am on fixed income so I may send him some Direct to disc albums I just purchased used in premium condition, it probably sounds cheap but its what I can do with all the economy issues........5 albums is better than 1 right? I will clean them on VPI and send them off...........if I can afford a new album I will let everyone know what I went with and as always, thanks!
