Digitally recorded lps?

I have found several lps in my collection are touted as being digitally recorded. This was considered a selling point at the time. I must say they sound good. I don't notice any digital glare. I would guess they are from the late 70's or early 80's.

What is the deal? Were the original master tapes done in digital. Kind of like a DDA or DAA recording? If so, why wouldn't the faults of digital be apparant?

What does the cognoscenti say about these?

Remember the man that had to cross a cow to the other side of the river... digital: it can't be done, it doesn't work.

Now a digitally recorded and mastered vinyl record is a thing of beauty since it has all of the purported fauls of digital plus all the beauty of warps and surface noise of te LP. What more could an audiophile want?
