Just an update: I got cl-mp3-parse working, so now I can calculate track
times! :-)

(/(*(length headers)26) 1000) = seconds

To clarify from my first email: The basic idea is that you've "got hold
of" an album of MP3s, and they all have disparate names (or even just
track numbers), and you want to rename them to their proper titles. So
you cheat and use the database you're supposed to use for ripping CDs to
rename all the MP3s, which works because the CDDB architecture has an
error margin of 10 seconds per track. Very useful if you have tons of
MP3s!
