Recommend some readily available, excellent collections of recordings of old-timey, fairground band organ music.

A proper recording of this arrangement of The Count of Luxembourg would be great, and is an example of the kind of music I'm after.

I found this album at a thrift store, which was pretty cool.

what i do in this situation is listen to pandora with beirut as the seed band. and then click thumbs up to anything with an accordion in it. i know you said organ, but try it out.
