Audio cds aren't filesystems, so the term "iso image" isn't quite
right.  The cdrecord manpage suggests this:

       To copy an audio CD in the most accurate way, first run

           cdda2wav dev=2,0 -vall cddb=0 -B -Owav

       and then run

           cdrecord dev=2,0 -v -dao -useinfo -text  *.wav

       This will try to copy track indices and  to  read  CD-Text
       information from disk.  If there is no CD-Text information,
       cdda2wav will try to get the information from freedb.org
       instead.
