I've found, through other emails, a great winning combination of Audio 
Recorder, which I already use, to capture the whole side of a tape or 
album.  Then, Audacity to listen to and mark the waveform and have it 
extract the highlighted area to mp3 (courtesy of liblame for Mac found 
somewhere else).

I've captured a couple of tapes like this already and successfully cut out 
each song.

Thanks for all the suggestions!
