If the friend is a man, go with the liquor,
unless they have some sort of hobby like fishing etc, in which case, the stores abound with tackle and fishing books.
If the friend is a woman, a book by their favorite author (if that is known), CD of their favorite musical artist with a nice bottle of wine, tickets to the Philharmonic, dinner thearter, or something similar, if they are into that type of scene...
Forget that old music idea of yours, I supsect your parents' friend would enjoy listening to it as much as you would.
and most of those time line books are from USA and not too much is relevant for Canadians.
