I got Ry Cooders Bop Till You Drop on vinyl when it first came out and I could hear some of the notorious digital nasties of one of the first digitally produced albums.
I just bought an iTunes download and it does not sound at all bad, with a very high dynamic range, so I don't think it has been messed about with.
There are a few places with digital clipping, but many notes are 20db below full scale, very low for those very early 16 bit ADCs
Interesting that AAC sounds better than analog
