Any recommendations of the best performances of this masterwork? Thanks!

The Pinnock continues to be my favorite performance (alert, alive and with rhythmic vitality); the McGegan is very very good and in superior sound.

I'll buy the Pinnock and McGegan and see which one I like better. Analogphil, do you have the Boulez's version on CD or LP? if you have it on CD, is there any place in internet where I can buy it? Thanks again.
