It definitely was a new LP, so it must have the "Boxed" mix on it.

That excludes the possibility that my CD contains the oldest mix. But, as I said, I'm sure this is a technical flaw, because no mix could ever sound so flunked up intentionally. The bass is the biggest difference, but there's much more. For example, you can hear the trumpet's reverb, but just a little of the instrument's sound. On the LP it's the reverse. Some guitars are ridiculously upfront, whereas on the LP they were more balanced. The tubular bells at the end of part 1 sound "empty", not so on vinyl.
There's a lot of stuff that just sounds totally screwed up on the CD.
