Not necessarily. It's hard to argue which is better, as they're different. The problem is, most CDs are in better condition than most records, so most CDs are closer to acheiving their maximum sound-quality potential. But if you had a record in impeccable quality, compared to a CDs in impeccable quality, the results would be different, but, depending on what you're playing, in some cases the vinyl would sound better and in some cases the CD would sound better.

I have an old punk comp from about 1977 on vinyl.
Kai:
I have an original pressing of the Residents' Meet the Residents. wewt. Also a shitload of Zappa records and a bunch others I swiped from my dad.
Freezey:
I find some songs sound better on vinyl than cd; though it isn't always the case. For instance, I find three-chord punk rock sounds a lot better on vinyl than cd. Case in point: comparing "Fun Tonight" by the Riverdales. I found the 7" for three bucks at the used record store, and that was the first time I heard the song. It had this grittiness to it, which was because of the vinyl. About six months later I got the Riverdales' S/T album on CD, and "Fun Tonight" suddenly didn't sound right. It was missing that grit, that rawness.
...uh, yeah.

It makes me happy that some bands are putting out vinyl now like The Unicorns. I found Bleach by Nirvana on vinyl for only $16 which is pretty decent in my opinion especially since I'm a huge fan of vinyl.
