You'll probably get a lot of votes for the Bohm/Vienna Decca recording; that seems to be a default recommendation. But I also find Sawallisch/Philadelphia (EMI) very satisfying, despite the problematic recording venue. The sound is not state-of-the-art, but it gets the job done.
Sony is in the midst of reissuing Columbia back-catalog material (again!!), in nice DSD remasterings. I've been impressed with results so far. One of the items on the release schedule is Bruno Walter's Bruckner 4th. That might be worth waiting for, since DSD might bring about noticeable sonic improvements.
