Above CD quality? With 60's material done with vacuum tubes and magnetic tape, CD sampling rates and bit depth won't limit the distribution quality. Of course there are often cases where there's room for noticeable improvement over earlier CD releases, but that's due to better hardware and differences in mastering and other processing.

I bet you could sell music sampled at some ridiculous rate to audiophiles. How about "Copelab Music Company"?

Well, they make SACD versions of some truly epic 1960-1970 era music that gets very good reviews.
