Editorial Reviews

Ultra-rare album originally released as acetate only in 1970 by Austin based psychedelic rock-blues combo featuring a 16 year old Eric Johnson, Vince Mariani and Jay Podolnick...contains two bonus tracks from a rare single 'Re-Birth Day' and 'Memories'. Beautiful deluxe gatefold digipack packaging in the usual Akarma style. 2001 release.

4.0 out of 5 stars Mariani - 'Perpetuum Moblie' (Sonobeat), October 15, 2009

Originally released in 1970, as this band from the past features a sixteen year-old guitarist - we know as Eric Johnson. A friend of mine recently informed me in about this 'rarity'. Best described as straight-ahead guitar rock. Tunes that I got the most out of were the rocking "Things Are Changing", the wailing "Lord, I Just Can't Help Myself", the eleven-minute epic "Euphoria" and "Windy Planet". Line-up: Eric Johnson-guitar & vocals, Jay Podilnick-bass & vocals and Vince Mariani-drums & vocals. Should appeal to (I'm second guessing) Vinnie Moore, early Bad Company, Greg Howe and Joe Satriani (I saw Johnson tour with Satriani not too long ago).

Interesting for what it is. The correct track listing should be:
1. First Song (Last Milestone)
2. Jazz intercut
3. Second Song (Re-Birth Day)
4. Jazz intercut
5. Third Song (Memories Lost And Found)
6. Jazz intercut
7. Fourth Song (I Can't Hurt Myself)
8. Mendor
9. Breaker
10. Pulsar
Bonus Tracks
11. Both sides of the Vince Mariani single: Pulsar/Boots
12. Re-Birth Day (single version)
13. Memories Lost And Found (single version)
Overall pretty raw stuff, but it was a demo that resulted in no interested labels.

I read the other review of this record. I agree this is not Eric Johnson's best BLUES work, HOWEVER.... it is hot psychedelic, hard rock prog.
This is a tight recording made during the beginnings of Acid Rock icons. Eric Johnson is amazing when you know that he is just 16 years old when we played on this. In 1970, special effects or pyrotechniques, on the guitar were beginning to erupt in the music world. The band is tight and leans in a progressive rock motif (like a hard Pink Floyd, Santana or inception Gentle Giant). The percussion is very good and gets about 9 minutes of solid attention. The 16 year old Mr. Johnson JUST jams, but this is NOT blues really. The vocals are very good with lyrics in keeping with that time. I listen to it about one a month and I thoroughly enjoy it. Excellent spin!
