Check the loudness war info site: www.dr.loudness-war.info
Even a cursory look will show you that most mastering for LPs, even when sourced from the same original digital files, has usually much better dynamic range than the masterings done for CDs. Sad but true. Only the CDs from the 80s are free of this plague (but I guess those have another problems), and some modern exceptions.
I guess this came from the realisation in the 90s that CD sounded thin when compared to vinyl: The so-called mastering "engineers" decided to squeeze the CDs dynamic range to attain an apparently more powerful sound. Utter trash which is common nowdays.
