You could try a pure Perl or Python tag library.

For MP3 files with ID3 tags try this one:

http://eyed3.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installation.html

It is pure Python and has no dependencies on compiled Python modules. It
comes with the 'eye3D' command line tool.

If there's a recent Python version (3.4+) on the server, you should be
able to install it anywhere like this:

$ # make virtual environment for a separated installation
$ python -m venv env
$ source env/bin/activate
(env) $ pip install eye3D

Then, while the virtual env is activated, you can use the eye3D tool.
