Intuitively a 24 bit / 96 kHz digital recording will be good. I think the question needs to be reframed in a different context with two key factors issues:
(1) Whether you like any digital version same or better than the vinyl version depends on the audio performance capabilities AND sonic signature therein of the audio system you are playing it on.
Even a CD quality 16 bit / 44.1 kHz digital recording can AND will sound fabulous on a high-end system; and will be every bit the equal or better of vinyl. In most cases a 24 bit / 96 kHz or higher spec digital recording played on a high-end system is indistinguishable from CD spec.
(2) The other key question is independent of digital or vinyl. It revolves around is it a good recording? - full stop. Did the recording engineer do a fine job in the studio, or on the remix? Digital and vinyl are meaningless and both can sound like crap if that part fails.
