Yes, just select the track in its entirety. Under analyze click Contrast. It will give you the RMS level. Plus it has another box where you can select a different track if you have more than one open in Audacity. And it gives you RMS level of that and the difference in db between them. I'd suggest this will work better than normalize because pops or ticks on an LP can be high enough to corrupt normalizing. I also suggest going in and manually reducing any large ticks or pops like especially the one you get when you sit the need down in the groove.

If Audacity is accurate, these two uploads should be adjusted to be within 0.01 dB RMS of each other (used Amplify, rather than Normalize)
These are two different configurations. I'll stay silent for now about what the differences are. No pop or tick removal.
