I'm a little confused. You said that you were comparing a CD and vinyl copy
of the same Kraftwerk album, and that the CD had the same sound as the LP
because the CD was mastered from a vinyl record. My question is, why did
Capitol do that? I have heard of it being done in instances where the master
tape was unavailable for whatever reason, and wondered what was the reason in
this case.
