Audacity and Goldwave no longer able to fix broken Project Chaos tracks

[RexFesto696]

I recently re-downloaded all the Sonic albums from OCR for my Sonic archive that I wanna rebuild. But when I tried to fix the seven broken bonus tracks from Sonic 3K Project Chaos using Audacity (like the instructions said), the program wouldn't open them, saying "MP3 decoding failed". Goldwave did the exact same thing.

Is there another way to fix the tracks? I NEED this collection!

EDIT:
I was able to fix the broken tracks using an older version of Audacity, so if you're gonna re-download Project Chaos, that's what I recommend doing until there's a permanent fix for this...

Just found this when running into trouble with iTunes importing my music after switching to iPhone. Very helpful. Thank you for posting this.

Had to jump through some hoops from Audacity's website just to get an older version; used version 2.0.6. 32-bit installer to keep up-to-date version (64 bit) intact.
