I would definitely agree with that statement.  Just be sure to have some good placement of phantom powered microphones, and top quality cables for guitars and other instruments with electronic pickups and I believe an analog original recording can be far superior.   With a good CD recorder component  (preferably one with record on the fly functions) it is easy to mix your original recording down to a digital format.
 
The only problem now is obtaining high quality analog media (i.e. cassettes), which becoming more difficult to find and purchase.

Although I can't say that I know all that much about the topic, I'll throw in my two cents.  

I actually recently ran into an article that talks about somethings that might be relevant.  Check it out: 
http://www.comomusic.com/comolibrary.php?todo=read&articleid=15

The summary of it is this: 
1) if you're doing digital recording/mixing you might be better off with a software solution because it's easier and cheaper to upgrade.  
2) analog might be better than digital.  This seems to be one of those religious questions thought.  

That's all I've got.
