I had the opportunity to watch The Classic Magic of Michael Vincent which will be out mid April.  You should get your orders in for this incredible set now.  It is fantastic.  Michael is the consummate artist and teaches some wonderful card magic and really teaches you how to be a better performer period. 

This is a 3 DVD set and is very reasonably priced for what you get.  The first volume features a performance of  Michael's complete parlor show and teaches several card effects used during this show.  The second volume features close up card magic.  The third volume teaches sleight of hand mastery which is basically how to think about and improve your basic sleight of hand.  This last volume in particular is incredibly insightful and will help one become a better magician. 

I highly recommend this set.  It is superb in production and content.  I know Alakazam is working with Michael on future DVDs we will be distributing.  I am confident this will be one of the hits of the year.

Watch for some exciting releases coming from Murphy's Magic Supplies, Inc. from top All Star producers such as David Regal (his wonderful and highly acclaimed book Approaching Magic coming any day and finally available to dealers worldwide), Paul Harris (Bro Gilbert's Deep 3 mentioned above), Richard Sanders (Identity - just one more killer release from Richard coming very soon), etc.  We are adding in more and more products from the wonderful Mikame line.  So much going on. 

Don't miss our dealer e-mails as we try to keep you up to date on new items, changes, etc.  Make sure you are staying in close contact with your representative, as we want to provide you with as much support, information, and assistance that we can to make you successful.  We have some exciting plans as a company to make you more successful.  Stay tuned.

While at Blackpool I spent some time with my friends at World Magic Shop.  They had some great releases that I mentioned previously such as Coinvex 2, etc.  I wanted to point out one that you should not overlook the title Pentacle.  I initially honestly overlooked how good this was until Craig Petty demonstrated some of the possibilities.  Many of these effects look like trick photography.  There is an amazing instant transposition between 2 and 4 cards that is super easy and looks fabulous. 

My buddy Mark Mason also has some wonderful items coming out.  In particular, make sure to check out Mark’s release of a Wayne Dobson effect titled Metamorphosis.  This is SO good, SO easy, and SO strong.  You will be delighted using it and will stun your audiences. It is a copper silver routine in the spectator's hands where the change happens visibly.  There is no sleight of hand and the coins can be examined before and after.  As with everything from Wayne and Mark the handling is devilishly clever and a joy to do (just think how great Coin Flux is).  When Mark showed this to me I was stunned at the change as it was done with apparently no cover and completely visible.  When he showed me the work I just laughed. 

Mark was slaying everyone at World Magic Seminar with his line but in particular Bob Swadling's Blindspot.  This clever gimmick allows you to do the coin in bottle while having everything thoroughly examined before hand, capping the bottle with the lid, once again showing the bottle empty (you'd swear it was empty but it's not), and then doing the classic coin in bottle.  Blindspot, Abyss by The Enchantment, and Captured by Justin Miller and Kozmo Magic are the 3 strongest coin/cap in bottle effects on the market.  Mark will be at Magic Live premiering a couple of new exciting items as well. 

If you have not picked up the JB Magic/Mark Mason line you should really do so.  It is one of the strongest lines in magic period. VERY clever handlings, easy to do, real foolers, well packaged, well made, thorough instructions, well priced, etc.  You simply can't go wrong with any product Mark Mason puts out.  If you are not familiar with Mark's line talk to your Murphy's representative and we will be happy to get you more information on this line as you will be successful with it.

I just finished watching Deep 3 by Bro Gilbert and Paul Harris.  It is wonderful and will really kick them hard.  It's Bro's really interesting take off on the Anything Deck with some honing by Paul Harris and Andrew Gerard.  It includes the beautiful deck and a very thorough instructional DVD done in the high quality style of True Astonishments, which Bro produced as well.  This should be seeing the light of day very soon.  This could well be one of the strongest card effects you can do as it goes to a level well beyond just a card trick.
True Astonishments continues to get raves and sell like crazy.  It is probably one of the best and most important releases in magic in many years.  If you have not picked it up you are truly missing out on something wonderful. 

I am anxiously awaiting the new Michael Vincent DVDs by Alakazam.  Peter Nardi sent me a copy this week and I can't wait.  I am a huge fan of Michael's work.  If you have never seen Michael perform before then you are in for a treat.  He handles his magic exquisitely and has some beautiful and extremely well though out and executed magic.  Between the high production value and the great magic I think this set will be a winner.  We will be seeing more of Michael Vincent and I am confident this will be great. 

Make sure you check out the Alakazam DVD Catalog as I think many of their wonderful releases such as The Grail, Zenner Tech, etc., are really overlooked and excellent. Their line is top quality, well packaged, and well produced.  You will find such winners as the John Archer DVDs, Ben Earl DVDs, The Extractor, Marc Spelmann DVDs, The Unexpected, and many many other top items from our friends at Alakazam.

It's been a while but I know my co-worker, David Peters, has been keeping everyone up on things.  I'd like to discuss some things coming out or just out that really stand out.  I just had the opportunity to watch the new L&L DVDs on the magic of Jon Armstrong.  There is some great magic, great handlings, wonderful thinking, etc. on these DVDs.  Jon is fun to watch with a very dry sense of humor.  Highlights for me are Jon's Ambitious Card Routine and Jon's handling of the Biddle Card Effect.  If you are using the Biddle effect with Lit (don't overlook Lit - David Blaine has been using it to great success and it is so strong) make sure you check out Jon's handling variation of the Biddle vanish.  Great, usable magic and sleights.
