That's the case for pretty much everything within the first few years of CDs. Early CD releases were always inferior to the LP versions, and the "remasters" usually just focus on raising the volume, in the process diminishing the audio fidelity of the music. Nowadays, however, most music is produced digitally, and, quite frankly, sounds worse on vinyl because they are mastered for the purposes of CDs. That's why I don't buy vinyl reissues either. I suspect that the recent reissues of, for example, Mercyful Fate and Holy Terror probably sound like shit, not even mentioning the ridiculous prices the larger labels charge for their LPs. You can find the originals for a lot of these records cheaper.
