I think the Tennstedt is either a pirate air-check or a mistake on
Berkshire's part; he never recorded the 3rd commercially.
Berkshire's Celibidache is also a pirate and should be avoided now that EMI
is in the process of officially releasing his Bruckner recordings direct
from the master tapes.
I would personally recommend the Sanderling/Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra,
which is a good early-1960's recording of an excellent performance on
Berlin Classics. The performing edition, for those who care about such
things, is essentially the first published version of Bruckner's last
thoughts on the work.
