are digital recordings on vinyl any better than CD

I have several LPs from the early/mid 80s that are digital recordings.They sound clear and crisp but lack bloom somewhat compared to analog recordings.Given that they are digital to start with is there any advantage to these over the CD of the same recording?

Your CD is digital that's turned to analog. The vinyl record is digital turned to analog. How could it be better? I'm sure people who like LP's will say it's better. But since I'm most concerned with the music, maybe I shouldn't have posted.

I think they still sound more natural and open with a clarity that only comes from vinyl.

This subject was discussed before though I don't quite remember where.
The short answer is, yes, it still can sound better on vinyl. How much better? It depends, including on your equipment.
