I used to have the Inbal/Frankfurt RSO performance of it on Teldec. I think Bruckner was right to give the work another go with the 1890 edition. That loud first-movement ending in the '87 version is not nearly as effective (or as moving!) as the one in the '90 version (at least IMHO). I have not yet heard Mrs. Young's recording (although I'm interested in it, not least because of its hi-rez multi-channel incarnation), so maybe she'll convince me of the worth of this '87 "Urfassung"! ;-)
