Miracles - The Magic of James Swain (Vol 1-4)
Available from www.llpub.com
Price: £24.99 each
The material contained in these four DVDs has entertained laymen and fooled magicians for nearly 40 years. These are not simply tricks, but time-tested miracles that will leave a lasting impression on your audiences for years to come.
Here we have 4 volumes of really cracking magic from James Swain. I was thoroughly entertained while watching them.
Volume 1 kicks off with James’ complete gambling act. There are some great moments within this act. Even if you don’t learn the whole thing, pieces can easily be extracted from it and added to your own repertoire. My favourite being ‘Playing Heavy’.
Volume 2 continues with a nice Triumph effect, with a kicker ending and is then followed by nine other effects, all of which are a joy to watch.
Volumes 3 and 4 contain between them a staggering 26 effects, how’s that for value? There is enough information on this four DVD set to last anyone a lifetime. Even if you mastered a fraction of what James offers you could forge a great career from it. MD
