I think you mean "I Believe."

This is a knock-off of a legitimate release called "No Introduction
Necessary" which was released  in the mid-80s;  I think it was recorded
around that time as well.  The legit release was out of print for a time
but may be back in print now.

Various comments like this and "don't flame me" have been appearing quite
often lately.  Has the Christmas spirit worn off so soon? ;-)  Anyway, a
bit of New Year's advice (whenever your New Year might happen to be; mine
coincides with the spring solstice as to me it doesn't make much sense to
have a new year, symbolising rebirth and renewal, in the dead of winter):
don't take it all so seriously. It's just a mailing list--the fate of human
civilisation doesn't rest on what is or isn't posted on an Internet e-mail
thingy that only a few hundred people read.  Keep it in perspective, okay?
Speaking of which:

>Looks like Good ole DG is back in business! I'm signing
>on. What about you?

<yawn>  Nah.  It used to matter, but not anymore; I'm onto something else now.

Not love but a reasonable level of tolerance,
Ana
