There were different PERFORMANCES, at least of Side 1. (I had a hard time convincing John Elison of this, had to make a CDR of two of them.) Since I've never heard the "Treasury" pressing, I can't comment, but I'm assuming it was made from a back-up tape recording and since the originals were direct-to-disc (i.e., no intervening tape), it stands to reason that they would sound better.
Follow Ups:
When a friend came up with that different take LP, i knew exactly what it was since I have heard your CDR. He thought that something was wrong with turntable. lol.
I still prefer the original and told him to keep the LP. After he left I realise that the original and his *alt* LP was swapped ( there is no indication on label or anywhere ) so he ended up with my *Good* copy.
By the time I called him he up, he sold it so my good copy is gone! :(
The only way you can tell them apart is by looking at the scribing in the dead wax. I have three direct-to-disc copies of this LP, with 3 different performances on Side 1. Yours probably has an IV (Roman numeral 4) on Side 1 or no Roman numeral at all. The one that got away probably had III (Roman numeral 3) there.
IIRC there were multiple performances of almost all of the Sheffield DD recordings for the reason that there was a limited number of high quality pressings that could be gotten from each original.
Actually I prefer the alt. take of 'Keep Your Eyes on the Sparrow.' on that CD.
The direct to disc may indeed sound better. the "Treasury" pressing does have pretty good sound though.
