In a direct comparison with the 45 rpm, it seems like this might have been from the same master tape. However, I don't think every song is from the same master tape. In the 45 rpm, at the beginning of Gold Dust Woman, you hear people yelling - like audience members. In the SACD, you don't hear those sounds.
