The linear track is the original composite analogue sourced recording and to me is beautiful..
Unless they specifically say something to the effect of 'digital audio on Hi-Fi track, analog audio on linear track' on the tape and or jacket, there's a 99.9% chance the same digital master recording was fed to both the linear audio track input and the Hi-Fi input of the industrial machine that made your tape...Some of those industrial machines that made mass-produced tape releases didn't even have provisions for recording different audio onto the linear tracks.

If the tape doesn't specifically say there's a difference between the sources for the linear and Hi-Fi tracks, then there almost certainly isn't.
