I was in the audience in Cleveland when the Bruckner 8 was recorded; they actually gave away free tickets for every seat. It was a fine performance of the original 1887 version of the work, with added sections (compared to the usual versions), such as loud brass at the end of the first movement. I thought the additions weakened the piece. Just be aware that you aren't getting what you might expect if you know the 1890 Nowak edition or the Haas or the Schalk version.
Here's a list of all the recordings of the Bruckner 8th, organized by performing edition:
