The CD that comes with the vinyl claims to be sourced from the uncompressed vinyl master.
Has anyone who has the vinyl LP listened to the accompanying CD to compare the two different CD masters?

I haven't opened it to hear the CD yet, but this is what the sticker on the vinyl says:

One thing I can safely say about either format release of GOS, They will NOT be compressed to the point of ruin as is Metallica's "Death Magnetic" - fans have started a petition to have the album "re-remastered and re-mixed" since the regular compact disc version (Produced/Ruined by Rick Rubin) pales in comparison to the Guitar Hero III download version (Which was sourced from un-compressed/un-mastered masters).

"THERE ARE VERY FEW VINYL RECORD PRESSING PLANTS AROUND ANYMORE, but the ones that have survived now service Audiophile and Dance labels. CLASSIC RECORDS uses RTI, a pressing and plating facility in Camarillo, CA." http://www.recordtech.com/features.htm More on RTI: http://www.recordtech.com/atmweb/ATMhist.htm (Read the warning label on the machine underneath Alfred E. Newman - CLASSIC!!!) Damn, I need to move out West - I could kill 2 birds with one stone: Work as a Quality Control technician (Which I have a degree in) in a vinyl/record pressing plant (A + for a music ADDICT as myself)

Here is the mental visual I use to make the comparison of compressed vs. uncompressed: Imagine having a large yard with 3 inches of tall grass - (this will be the uncompressed recording). This yard is lush, plush and very good on the 'tootsies'. To your senses it appears to be perfect (You can see how full it is and you can feel how full it is) Now imagine you mow that same yard down to a 1 inch height of grass (This is the compressed recording), while it is still nice and comfortable it is missing alot more of the plushness and fullness that the 3 inch tall grass yard has. That appeal from the 3 inch yard has been reduced in size, while it is still the same yard...it is COMPRESSED of what made it a better yard. Btw, the MFSL vinyl version of Tusk smokes all the other available version ![]()

size of the data upon a disc and compression-wise are they different, otherwise they're the same album (not different mixes or re-mixes as some may assume).

i haven't played the vinyl-cd yet to compare to the regular cd. my speakers are all jacked-up and i'm not sure I'll be able to tell the difference (on vinyl, the first two tracks seemed to gain the most).
