VIRGIN INSANITY Ultra Rare 71 Folk Psych Real People LP
Virgin Insanity - Illusions Of The Maintenance Man (Funky 72411) Incredibly rare 1971 homemade privately pressed LP.
Group consists of Bob Long, Eve Long, Jud Chapin and Wayne Lamar Boggs III and apparently is from Dallas, Texas.
Here is what the fantastic site Lysergia had to say about this LP.
Obscure and still fairly unknown basement folk/folkrock with short songs and male/female vocals. Hard to describe accurately (always a good sign), though comparisons drawn to the third Velvet U LP are not without merit, esp as the lady vocalist sounds as unschooled and earthy as Moe Tucker. The sound is disarmingly honest and stripped down, and indeed the concentrated minimalist vibe of the LP seems wholly deliberate. The LP has strong grower qualities and eats its way into your brain, due in no small part to the excellent, understated songwriting and arrangements. Unlike the typical depression and claustrophobia of the genre, a rare warmth and closeness is projected here, and it's also a most atypical record to come out of Texas. One of the flagship pieces for the private press 70s folk sound. Perhaps not for everyone, but I was impressed and keep returning to it. The band has recently been found and confirmed the press size as 200 copies. [PL]
This LP rarely shows up for sale, but one recently sold on eBay for $2245.00 (item number 47820334032). This copy is not in as nice condition as that one, but is still a very good copy.
The cover is plain white with the artist and title stamped on the front in red and blue respectively. This cover has a rather large tear at the top right, but it doesn't affect the stamps. It also has the initials "B.B." written below the stamps. The back cover, which is blank, shows a little wear. It includes the 11" x 8 1/2" paper insert which has all the group information and song titles. This essentially forms the back cover art. This insert and both labels have some writing in black ink (see photos).
The disc has a very slight edge warp which is hard to detect, but is clearly evident upon playing. It affects the play in a minor way. There is a very slight "rumble" towards the beginning of the first song on each side. Again, it is not very distracting at all, but it is there.
The vinyl has been taken care of, but has certainly been played many times. Some people might call it VG+, but since it has multiple hairline scratches and plays somewhat crackly, we call it VG (meaning "very good", NOT "very bad").
Condition - Disc VG, Cover VG.
A major folk psych rarity!!
