The interface isn't very easy to use, but I hope these instructions
make it easier: (BTW, I use Easytag 1.99.4 from Sid).

* Navigate to the folder, with the songs, select them all.
* Select "Misc" and "CD Data Base Search" from the menu.
* Try the Automatic search first, if that doesn't work, select the
Manual search tab and try to search for the album title.
* Select the tags you want to set in the checkboxes at the bottom, and
press Apply.
* Press the Save files button from the toolbar to write the tags.

Hope I made things a little bit clearer.

A better way to do this is MusicBrainz that can match "fingerprints"
from songs, but I don't think there are any such apps in the
archives. (Might be worth a check tough).
