I think that the tracks where this occurs were imported from a PC.
Are any of them old enough to have to have passed through OS9? Unless
you had the Joliet extension installed, PC-written CDs could get
dropped down to '8+3' naming.
I've a feeling that Applescript can cope with the abbreviated
filepaths, you may have to write a quick script, maybe something like
convert to a Mac path and feed to Applescript, then get a POSIX path
back from the script.
But it's definitely a name-shortening problem.
