Regarding: If you can't upgrade you simply need to calculate the length
as well. 
  ... then substr(artist, 5, length(artist)-4)

Am I right that it's ok to simply specify a large value for the third
parameter?


    SQLite version 3.3.12

    select substr('The Quick Brown Fox', 5, 999);
    Quick Brown Fox

It's possible that you'll still end up wanting to add a "sort_by" column
if it matters that, e.g., a group named "The E-mails" is sorted the same
as "The Emails".


"How do I sort 'the, '?   Let me count the ways."
