you might be right about this and I dont know of so many examples definitely but I think Zappa was one of the first to do mastering in all digital - as early as the late 70s or around 1980 - and then of course the result was released on vinyl and I always thought sounded quite good. The high end was admittedly very crisp sounding almost as a progenitor to the overblown high end of CD sound, but given it was on vinyl medium it was tempered by that.
His album "Sheik Yarbooti" was I think a good example of this. No surprise that he was one of the first, since his mixes were so complex with use of pieces recorded at different times and places dubbed together. To do that in the analog domain must have been crazy and I think Dweezil Zappa has commented on that in documentaries
