Vinyl does NOT sound better than uncompressed digital recordings.
Vinyl playback features table hum, imperfect playback speeds that warp
the original tone & texture of the performance, vibrations, nicks &
scratches, etc.
The "warmth" (or, in this case, "soul") that LP-philes refer to has
more to do with a distortion of the source recording caused by the
limits of the technology than anything else.
