There's a Naxos recording of some symphonies by C.P.E. Bach and W.F. Bach. Unfortunately I'm not willing to part with mine, but it's widely available; I picked mine up in a local CD store.

Of the four Bach sons who were composers, my favorite is Carl Philipp Emanuel. He's very much his own person; in fact he was one of the prime movers from Baroque to Clical music; but he's got his father's energy, depth, and complexity.
