Audion 2, if you can find a copy. Yes it runs in classic, but for some reason Audion 3 only lets you open certain MP3's for waveform editing.
Anyways, get all the songs open you want in editor windows, and copy and paste.

I could have suggested Audacity, which is freeware, but you would have better stability trying to make a perfectly poached egg.
In Sound Studio, import your AIFF files (you should use AIFF to edit audio whenever possible) in separate windows.
There are two easy methods of combining tracks:
(1) Copy the second track by highlighting it in its entirety and paste it at the end of the first track.
This method may not work will with more professional work, since it's just a simple cut and paste. So...
(2) Do a normal fade out somewhere at the end of the first track. Highlight the area you want to fade out, then choose the fade filter. (Make sure the filter ends so there is only silence following the fade. You can silence any leftover track audio now.) Then highlight the entire second track, copy it, and go back to the window with your first track. From wherever time you want the second track to start, highlight that point as well as anything to the right of the point. Go into your edit menu and choose Paste Mixing. Do not change any of the options in the pop-up box that follows.
You can repeat this process for your other songs as well.
BEWARE of any peaks that exceed the decibel range for the song. You may hear static from your speakers, or you may see audio waves be "cut off" and square (when you zoom in). Avoid at all costs.
A couple of picks:
