Don't know about the performance or the recording as those are completely separate issues.
As for digital versus analog, I generally prefer analog but conversions from an excellent digital master DIRECTLY to analog at the studio is very different than the multiple mix down and conversions that we receive in red book CD.
Perfect example is Alison Krauss "Forget About It." A BEAUTIFUL recording and what a voice! The LP is clearly better than CD on my system although the master is as digital as can be.
Short answer, if that is a performance you want, spin it and enjoy.
