Reissue of an album released in 1971.Rock, Psychedelic Rock, Folk Rock From Acid Archives book: One of the most dearly beloved discoveries within this "private pressing" field comes from a band called "Virgin Insanity". Even among a wealth of unlikely idiosynchracies this album stands out, due not just to the timeless nature of its music, but also because of its unlikely origins. It's hard to imagine a locale less appropriate for intimate basement folkrock than Dallas, Texas, 1971.The "Virgin Insanity" was created mainly to record the album, although it turned out to exist beyond that escapade. The main engine behind the group and album was "Bob Long"; songwriter, arranger, guitarist and coordinator, who after an unsuccessful attempt to break into the West Coast music business had returned to Dallas determined to produce something tangible. Living under meagre conditions the financing of an album, even a budget custom pressing, was difficult. "Bob Long" made ends meet by working as a department store Santa Claus in late 1970, which is where he met his future wife and future Virgin Insanity member, Eve. Unemployed after the Christmas holidays, Long was offered another job in the glamorous sewage and wastewater business, which would prompt the LP title, "Illusions Of The Maintenance Man".
