Those of you who have access to Dutch R4 may already have heard the 2014 re-broadcast of Bruckner's 8th Symphony, recorded at the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam on 16th June 1966.
If you missed the broadcast, the Memories label has now released the performance on CD. You can buy the CDs From HMV in Japan

or from an Ebay seller in Japan:

I recently bought another Karajan CD from the same Ebay seller and it arrived fairly quickly.
Memories used to be an Italian label but these days their CDs only seem to be available from Japan.
The Bruckner 8 is coupled with a Bruckner 5 from 1954 with the Vienna Symphony Orchestra (originally released on CD by Orfeo) and a Bruckner 7 from 1962 with the Vienna Philharmonic (originally released by ICA). Unlike the ICA release,the Memories CD does not include Mozart's 41st Symphony from the 1962 concert.
