You're right, but it's only a start.
To hear it as the mastering engineer intended, yes you would need to play it back at the same level. But you would also need a system with the same frequency response. And you would have to consider the mixing engineer too, because the playback level it was mixed at and the response of the mixing system surely influenced the mix. And surely the monitoring level and response of the monitoring system influenced the recording engineer's decisions too. Given there is no standard listening level or frequency response in the recording industry, and recordings are frequently put together by chain of multiple engineers working at different levels in different systems, it's no wonder why natural sounding recordings are hard to come by. It also helps explain why better recordings often come from small labels with a team of a few individuals doing everything.
