Hi Nigel,
Good point. This of course requires that he still has access to the individual tracks of each song in question. If he has already mixed down and deleted the original track data, then he is, how do you say, SOOL.

Then again, with Sound Forge, he could locate the offending peaks and selectively compress those areas slightly and then normalize. Wouldn't necessarily be fun to do, but it could solve the problem.
Best Regards,
Dave
