While it won't help you retroactively without some work to integrate
it with the Rivendell database, and it's not a _perfect_ method, you
should look at the MusicBrainz database. It's online, freely
available, and contains ISRC and other data for most things. Not sure
about UPCs or catalog numbers, but it will let you identify most
albums (except where there's more than one album with the track on).

I have MB support in IRIS (https://github.com/JamesHarrison/iris), a
tool I put together a little while back to handle content ingest- I
haven't had time to finish the Rivendell importer stage, though, so it
can't yet directly insert things like ISRC data into the database
(since rdimport won't accept that as an input, making a quick and
dirty solution impossible). I think someone's experimented in the past
with integrating the MusicBrainz Picard tagger with the Rivendell
library- might be worth looking into that.

Cheers,
James Harrison
