Blown away by a vinyl version of a CD?

I got it when it was released.  
Meh.  
Then again no interest in hearing the CD.

Fuzzy,
Maybe you don't like the music, but the sound is pretty sweet....

if you think the vinyl version of JATPS is good compared to the CD, you should hear a good 15ips 1/4" master dub tape transfer of it on a high quality master recorder tape deck.

JATPS is an audiophile war horse, and not musically everyone’s cup of tea. those tambourine’s get under people’s skin. but it is a sonic masterpiece. i’ve not played it in my system in ages. maybe it’s time to drag it out and dust it off again.

another great CD that is also even better on record is Rebecca Pidgeon’s "The Raven". it was a long time favorite of mine on CD.....and originally an analog recording, which helps. ’Breaking Silence’ is also an original analog recording.

most times the great Lp versions of popular CD’s are originally analog recordings. digitally sourced LP’s compared to CD’s is a crap shoot. mostly that comes down to the quality of the source gear used. and these days high rez versions in the native resolutions of the digital recordings surpass Lp versions more often. so you can't just say 'digital'.....the results are not that general.

True....

@mglik ,  Congrats! I had this experience in about 2015--despite the fact that I got my first TT in 1978 and have had one since.  

For me it was Bill Evans Waltz for Debbie (1962).  I made a few upgrades on the analog side of my system that got me clearly out of mid-fi and into a little better plateau.  Wow!  I was floored.  I remember that night well.  

Good for you!! Now you can explore other records that give the same sonic dividends.  Enjoy!!!!
