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?

The first one I recall is Ry Cooder's "Bop Til You Drop." At the time I remember thinking how dynamic the sound was, this was back in the 70s.
