I've got the 2001 remaster on CD.

I took the first 30 seconds, padded it and adjusted the gain to match the SACD.flac with:
sox 01\ Alone\ Again\ Or.wav CD.wav pad 0.14523809523809524 trim 0 30 gain -2.99

Gain was set so Foobar's replaygain scanner reports the same track gain (+4.36) and the padding was set to line up the part where the left channel comes in. Other parts of the track don't line up perfectly so I guess the CD and SACD are from different recordings of the tape.

Interesting!
Thanks for doing that eric.w, I'm going to have to try some serious critical listening of the two digital rips.
