I see you already got a good answer
but here is a solution in awk instead of sed

Code:
awk -F '/' '{tw = split ($8, arr, "-"); i = 2; title = ""; while (i < tw) {title = title arr[i] " "; ++i} print title $9 "\n" $0}' file

there is probably a better way to write this but it works

exfalso

exfalso(1)						      General Commands Manual							exfalso(1)

NAME

       exfalso - audio tag editor

SYNOPSIS

       exfalso [ directory ]

DESCRIPTION

       Ex Falso displays and edits audio metadata tags. Supported formats include MP3, Ogg Vorbis, FLAC, Musepack (MPC), WavPack, and MOD/XM/IT.

       This  manual  page  is  only  a	short  reference  for  Ex  Falso.  Complete documentation is available at http://code.google.com/p/quodli-
       bet/wiki/Guide.

OPTIONS

       Ex Falso may be given a directory to open on the command line.

TIED TAGS

       Many places in Ex Falso allow you to use "tied tags". Tied tags are two tag names joined  together  with  a  "~"  like  "title~version"	or
       "album~part".   Tied  tags  result  in  "nice"  displays  even when one of the tags is missing; for example, "title~version" will result in
       Title - Version when a version tag is present, but only Title when one isn't. You can tie any number of tags together.

RENAMING FILES

       Ex Falso allows you to rename files based on their tags. In some cases you may wish to alter the filename depending on  whether	some  tags
       are present or missing, in addition to their values. A common pattern might be
	   <tracknumber>. <title~version>
       You can use a '|' to only text when a tag is present:
	   <tracknumber|<tracknumber>. ><title~version>
       You can also specify literal text to use if the tag is missing by adding another '|':
	   <album|<album>|No Album> - <title>
       See http://code.google.com/p/quodlibet/wiki/Guide_Renaming.

       See http://code.google.com/p/quodlibet/issues/list for a list of all currently open bugs and feature requests.
