Crappy sounding Yes cd

Hello, everybody. I have a wonderfull Yes Close To The Edge cd that sounds like crap. It is an HDCD from Japan minivinyl version with all stuff, inlay... from Warner of Japan. Well I guess You know what edition do I mean. Certainly, it is a collector's piece for me, but the cd sounds like crap. From the start I noticed there were characteristic distortions on clear wakeman's passages, especially on the title track. Now that my system got much highier resolution, I noticed that all this disk is packed with such distortions that remind too high recording level on a RtoR tape recorder or badly scratched vinyl. They are not pops, just clear notes are sandy. Does anyone here have such a japanese cd with the abovementioned distortions or is it just my unhappy copy? I believe they ARE distortion, as the player is Accuphase and is very revealing.
Serge.
