It wouldn't surprise me if the Speakers Corner LP sounds better than the Universal Japan SACD. Their outreach is to different markets, so you'd expect the releases to sound ...

Accomplished 5.1 mix.

Much, much better fidelity than my CD, which I found to be compressed and muffled.
As an example, on "Chain" the bass solo is so clear you can hear the bass strings vibrate.
I highly recommend it over the CD version.

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.
