  Not a fan of Beth's voice, huh?  Well...I suppose it's an acquired taste.  I was going to school in Rochester when they were together and saw them many times.  I always enjoyed the band, including Beth's vocals...Somehow, I thought her voice had the right color for the group's sound.

  I can't answer that question, but if you're that passionate about the subject, find out who owns it and start trying to change some minds.  Get a bunch of people to work with you on convincing those people.  As to owning a record label, well...You have to weigh how important having a Neats' reissue is versus whatever you currently spend money on (family, mortgage, etc.)  You could always see if you could get a few friends to pool some money together to make it happen.
