Kill City - Line CD

The press release for the new Kill City remix/remaster claims that all previous CD pressings have been needle drops, but the copy I've been listening to for nearly 20 years isn't. It's the Line double CD that pairs Kill City with I'm Sick of You and I've never heard a single pop or crackle on it that would indicate that it's a needle drop. In fact, when I bought the previous Bomp reissue thinking that it was going to be an upgrade, I was surprised to hear that it was clearly mastered from vinyl. Does anyone know the source of the Line version?

Greg Shaw probably......

I have the same Line pressing. Pretty sure it's not sourced from vinyl, but having compared it to a good vinyl rip I must say the vinyl (first pressing) sounds much better.
