Thanks you, Christopher and Chuck. A-NO-NE isn't an acronym. It's a Japanese word which could mean three ways, "Give Me A Brake", "Listen", and "The first of Sound". Maria Shneider never used The in front of Maria Shneider Jazz Orchestra. Carla Bley sometime omitted The, i.e., "Carla Bley Big Band Goes To Church". Here is a really puzzling one: <http://www.hopper-management.com/lcjo_bio_e.htm> They don't use The when full name, but they use The when acronym.
