QL on Mavericks appears not to be displaying ID3 tags anymore, only duration time and the illustration of mp3 files. It used to display more before :

Here is the version information of the plugin /System/Library/QuickLook/Audio.qlgenerator which is involved :
<key>BuildAliasOf</key>
<string>QuickLook</string>
<key>BuildVersion</key>
<string>2</string>
<key>CFBundleShortVersionString</key>
<string>5.0</string>
<key>CFBundleVersion</key>
<string>622.7</string>
<key>ProjectName</key>
<string>QuickLookPlugins_generators</string>
<key>SourceVersion</key>
<string>622007000000000</string>
PS : I already tried fixing QL following this : http://www.cnet.com/news/fixing-quick-look-issues-in-os-x/ ; nothing's changed.
Could anybody send me a plugin version from a prior OS X version that displays correctly the ID3 tags please ?

qlBitRate is your friend. To install, download the latest zip, unzip it and drop qlBitRate.qlgenerator
in ~/Library/QuickLook
(you may have to create the directory first).
I just tested it and got name, artist, album and time shown for a few mp3:s of mine on osx Yosemite (10.10.2). It might be missing the album artwork, but I haven't taken the time to dig up a file I know has that embedded.
