No, you changed the subject. I’m not asking if the source was digital - I’m asking if the source was the very Compact DIscs I bought from Smithsonian Folkways in 1997. You CAN get the original 78s and remaster them post-1997 technology. You can ALSO start with, say, the Smithsonian’s higer rez digital than what they put on the CDs. I have asked this question about this reissue (and other Harry Smith Anthology vinyl) before – always the same run-around, always a change of subject. Just be honest with me about how the hell it was made. That’s all I ask.
