    if (f) print fn
    fn = $2; f = x
    }
    /^(Title|A(rtist|lbum)): *(|[Uu]known|[Tt]rack) *$/ {
      f++
      }
    END {  
      if (f) print fn
      }'

With mawk (the default awk on Ubuntu), you'll need something like this:
Code:
find -iname '*.mp3' -exec id3 -Rl {} + |
  mawk -F: '/Filename: / {
    if (f) print fn
    fn = $2; f = x
    }
    /^(Title|A(rtist|lbum)): *(([Uu]known|[Tt]rack *)| *)$/ {
      f++
      }
    END {  
      if (f) print fn
      }'

I find track 01 and 07. Both have empty titles.
The tracks that should be found are track 02 (which is titled 'track 01', yes I really messed this one up) and track 03 (which is titled 'unknown')

To be sure: gawk is my default awk.
Code:
$ awk -W version
GNU Awk 3.1.7
