Not me but I'm another who's curious and would like to hear it.
Okay so The Quietus has just published a list of Top 100 Reissues, Soundtracks, Compilations and Mixes. I'm going to paste the entire lot here because it's so much easier to read, as the webpages are so dominated by embedded bandcamp and youtube links that it's an arse to load (it kept crashing on my phone anyway). If your technology is better than mine you might prefer to read it here

Unsurprisingly there's much I haven't heard here and not everything appeals but I am going to check out JD Twitch Presents Kreaturen Der Nacht, Onda de Amor, Salm, the Turkish Ladies comp, Uneven Paths: Deviant Pop From 1980-1991 and a few others. Can't fault their inclusion of releases like the Holger Czukay set, Betty Davis, Dennis Coffey, Joe Henderson (wasn't The Elements reissued last year?), and Soul of a Nation 2.
