You got seriously fucked on that deal because the digital copy isn't the same as you surely know,I have it on vinyl & the original analog A to D disc in my collection,my son bought the rerelease digital copy for our studio & quickly found out it lacks about 20% of the dynamics the analog versions have,I thought I was hearing shit until I did an a/b test thru the dbx spectrum analyzer,the digital rerelease copy's are missing roughly -6 db across the board,whoever the engineer was on the rerelease should be shot for compressing the digital too much.

EBay or a collectors record shop you can still score the analog discs but you'll pay about $50 which is BS .

If you ever do want to get back into vinyl the best deals on good quality vinyl are at Audiogon.com,idk if you've been to that site before but its a used HiFi & home theater site that specializes in mid fi to ubber high end gear like Krell,McIntosh & Mark Levinson,lots of tube gear for sale there too,they have a section devoted to brand new 40-60 gram vinyl pressings,I just scored a new heavy weight pressing of Bob Seger Smokin OP's last month for $25 shipped next day air .
