I forgot to include the FILE line from the CUE file:
> FILE "01_-_The_Wooden_Prince_(A_Dancing-Play_In_One_Act)_-_London_Symphony_Orchestra_(Antal_Dorati,_Conductor).mp3" MP3

I tried renaming the MP3 by changing all spaces to underlines, and then 
changing the CUE file as well.  It made no difference.
