I need a command line tool to validate mp3 file(s)....    just something 
that scans the file and looks for structural errors and reports it.

background, I've recovered a few 1000 MP3 files off a dying disk drive 
for a radio station, some of the other files I recovered had several K 
byte long blocks of zeros splatted in the middle where the dying drive 
did bad sector remapping (SMART reported 1900+ sectors had been 
remapped)...    this particular library was the playlist for an internet 
radio station run as a pet project by the program director of a FM 
station... said PD passed away from cancer last year, and the station 
management wants to put this internet station back online as a legacy to 
her.

its a very obscure bunch of music, all old 'cowboy' songs.  :)
