Hi Scott,
I second your idea of rereleasing interesting 80s stuff that has got little attention, as I know there is so much 80s stuff never been released on CD before. Of course, there are so many things to pay attention to and that last time (licensing issues etc.), but I wish you good luck! I am willing to pay some extra money if it is about an interesting artist and if the remastering is well done.
Concerning my release wishes on CD for the first time, I would suggest the following:

As I've already said, there is many 80s stuff out there that has never been released on CD before... and there is so many other good 80s out there, waiting to get rereleased...just a few thoughts on that.
