Could someone suggest the best circuit to make LEDs flash in time with a music source directly connected to the circuit? BTW the circuit needs to run off batteries, I've seen circuits using TIP31 transistors, but are they any good?

There's a website for analog audio circuitry that I really like: https://sound-au.com
In keeping with the author's request, I've only provided a link to the home page, but if you add these to the end of the URL, you'll get:
Perhaps you could adapt one of those?
Or if all you want is to flash a single LED in sync with, say, the kick drum, then you could use a dual opamp to:
The result of that can either drive the LED directly if the opamp is strong enough, or feed a transistor.
