I'm having trouble finding 'cddbcmd'. Looks like it used to come with
xmcd, but i'm just running in circles.  Pity. It looks like it was the
tool I was looking for. Maybe its replaced by the crashing 'cda'.  
Normally, i'd compile from source. But it uses proprietry motif. I
probably have the pirated libraries somewhere, but they are so old. Would
mean more endless rounds of dependencies.

 Time for a nice hot cup of coffee instead.
