I have converted a CD track into an MP3 - is there a way to place it on the AB - or do I need another format?

I think you need to upload it to some kind of hosting site Andy
Upload to upl.co, Andy

Put the link to your mp3 on AB
As TB indicates, you can use a file-hosting service, such as the wonderful Upl.co, to upload your file to and then provide a link to it here. However that only allows other ABer's to download the file, so that they can then play it in Windows Media Player (or VLC or whatever other media player they use).

If you want ABers to be able to hear your file directly (rather than having to download it and open it in their media player), probably the easiest way to do it is to create a video file from it that just uses a static picture and then upload that file to Youtube. (You can then embed the file into an AB post in the usual way).

I use this website to create video files with just a single image. (It only takes a few clicks):

For example, here's a track that I ripped from an obscure CD of a school choir singing that I wanted to share with others. Having ripped it to MP3 format, I found a suitable picture online and used the link above to create a single-image video, enabling me to upload it to Youtube. The whole process was very quick:
See if this works.

Yep, that was easy.

Simply press on the 'upload' button and choose your file. Then copy url.
Came back to see if andy hughes had post his mp3.

The so called wonderful Upl.co is a 'Not secure' site and has a 'random upload' button.

Don't press on that random upload button, it may (as it did) throw up some rather noncey images.
Why do people post stuff like this then ignore it?
