It's a crap shoot. But on average analog originals from the 60s and 70s are superior. The majority of the recent pressings is mediocre at best. Not specifically because they are from digital sources rather than analog, but because the pressings themselves often result in way too many imperfections which renders the listening experience a pain. By example, the last Steven Wilson vinyl was pressed in Czechoslovakia and has so many pressing issues I had to buy a Italian CD pressing to be able to appreciate it. Sad.
