I think it largely depends on the recording and mastering process. I have lots of friends that use a fully analog process end to end, which changes the way you approach your sessions and the recording gear itself plays a huge part in the sound. You're then mixing and mastering for a playback medium that isn't just radio or mid-quality streaming on iPhone earbuds. All of that has a very real impact on the end result and lots of old albums were recorded, mixed, and mastered for a fully analog playback medium. If we're talking about music made in a fully digital studio and then pressed to vinyl at the end, then yeah, there really isn't a difference. Maybe it even sounds worse. But if your musicians and engineers are thinking about an entirely analog end result, then I do think it sounds different (and in my opinion better).
