Sid Lorraine said: "I listened to one right away and was so intrigued I immediately listened to the second. I think they are among the best that Martin has released. They are packed with practical advice and teaching as only Paul can do it. I can recommend these tapes. Paul does a fine job and if you like his kind of close-up trickery, you'll learn a lot."

This recording was originally...

"I have seen Paul performing many times now and I am amazed how he can captivate an audience with just one pack of ungimmicked playing cards. His act is full of comedy yet he cracks few jokes and above all he is a master of misdirection. I know no one else who sets off for top venues with his act in his pockets. As he says, "I wear my act". He takes a back up pack of cards and sometimes a couple of close up items and he is set for complete show." - Martin Breese
