Does anyone know anything about a new DVD from James Brown from the UK? He told me he had a DVD coming out when I spoke to him at Blackpool (and I had previously seen him perform at the Session Convention)
James does a great coin on shoulder/under watch with just one coin which is beautiful.
Just a magic lovin dude

I don't think anyone in a performing career should be able to use the name "James Brown" until the Godfather of Soul (say it loud, I'm black and I'm proud) retires from show business or life itself. Whatever their given name is.

Hi Guy's
The DVD is expected to arrive here in the shop, within 4 weeks. James is a great thinker and performer. His routines are first class. The DVD contains both lecture footage and real-world footage. Trust me this is one DVD the workers out there will not want to miss! Peter |

FYI
James Brown DVD - "Fancy a Pot of Jam?" Psychological Deck Vanish The ultimate solution to the "Show me a trick!" request that will blow them away! The deck vanishes from between yours and the spectator's hands, leaving nothing but their previously thought of card! Card Under Box The classic effect with some great new twists! See James perform this in all the "wrong" situations and successfully blow people away! Repeat card under box, deck under box & optional vanish! This is a great lesson in misdirection as James proves that with the right thinking, you CAN do this anywhere! Coin on Shoulder & More! A great reworking of a popular effect that many people shy away from! James shows you the proper technique for making the coin stay put in a one coin routine that really uses just ONE coin! Watch as the coin repeatedly vanishes & reappears on the shoulder in your eye, under the spectators watch, climaxing in their WATCH ending up on their shoulder! Essential impromptu Magic for every Magician! Card Under Watch This one gets people talking! When a spectator finds their signed card folded & wedged snugly under their watch, they literally freak out! James has routined this in such a way that the spectator's will NEVER be able to backtrack the load. A fantastic lesson in time misdirection! Fancy a Pot of Jam? Pitching & loading for the real world! This effect takes a simple coin trick and gives it an ending that is so surreal that it will be remembered for a very long time! James begins with "The World Famous 11p Trick" & ends it with a mind blowing production of a pot of jam that appears, vanishes & finds itself on the spectator's shoulder! Cards Opener A brilliant routine combining the best elements of card Magic, to create an action packed showpiece that is ideal to begin your set with. Cards to pocket, card changes and a deck vanish make this something to really show you mean business when you have a deck of cards! Cards to Spectator's Pocket Sounds impossible! You have to see, learn it, then go out and try it! This really works and takes the popular cards to pocket plot, but amplifies the impact! Especially as the spectator actually removes the card from their own pocket and the WHOLE DECK when the effect climaxes with it vanishing & appearing in their pocket! A reputation maker for those who are willing to go out there & do it! Diminishing Switch A fantastic transposition effect that is not the norm! A SINGLE card on a spectator's hand changes places with FOUR cards from your hands! This routine takes a well known sequence, builds a trick around it, then delivers a knock out transposition ending that is just impossible! Band Up! Visual card Magic at its best! A selected card literally appears from nowhere on the back of a spectator's hand. The deck is wrapped in a rubber band; the spectator's hand goes on top, then BANG, the selection jumps onto the BACK of their hand! It looks like trick photography on film! Watch Stealing Two different techniques for removing wristwatches in seconds! Watch James do this to people time and time again and deal with that inevitable "getting caught" situation. Not only does he get the watch off at lightening speed - the watch ends up on James' wrist and even on the spectator's shoulder! "James's sensational audience management will make you shake your head in disbelief. I have seen James in action for real people and trust me when I say he is a master of misdirection. He is consistently excellent with his magic. This DVD is a must for anyone who wants to learn from a real worker. GREAT GREAT GREAT! You can only mess with the classic principles of magic when you fully understand why they work; James fully understands why they work, period!" Martin Sanderson; Corporate Close up Magic Legend. "James Brown does the material we all wish we had the nerve to do. Misdirection, and spectator management are the real secrets to his work and he is an expert at both." Peter Wardell; A street performer to be reckoned with. |

Hmm I have seen the demo show reel and I think it looks pretty fresh. My mis-direction or as I prefer to call it directional attention displacement really sucks. Are there tips on how to improve in this de[partment. I always gets caught when I stick cards under watches :-(
I like greg wilson type magic and this seems to have that vibe. Criss Notorious BIG - 1972 to 1987 |

Having worked with James on several occasions, I can whole heartedly say that, with the practice and dedication, this stuff is real world working killers. James has a unique touch, that shines through in all his work and everything he does. He is one of the few guys I know who not only slays spectators, but also consistently floors magicians. Buy it Buy it Buy it etc etc etc.

Can I just add that James always astounds me when we meet up. Unlike many magicians, he is always happy to show and comment on ideas. A top guy. He deserves to do well. Oh, may I add that I am in no way connected to the publishing of his DVD. Just appreciate quality when I see it!
