Well, yes.

Just reading an interview with Neil Young (HiFi Choice, January 2005),
in which he states,

"The analogue records always sounded better than anything else to me.
But I compared the new vinyl versions, which are taken from a first
generation analogue master copy, and the best just got better. It's a
really good feeling."

Then he didn't like the master tape.
