Such a great performer, such a great man ❤️🪄🕊
Saw Gen work at the 200 Club of Union County NJ many, many years ago and he appeared as "Valdez" ... same act but different costume... sombrero and serape... after the show I talked to him and asked why the Latin appearance... he told me that he was booked so many times that the only way he could get repeat bookings was to be someone else... voila Valdez! Always a great act!
Amazing story about an amazing Magician. Such a true showman.
I've seen General Grant's Dove & Silk act many times; and, I think this specific footage shows one his absolute smoothest execution of the Double Dove Production - and, all the other times I've seen him do it was Grade A; but, this one was A++
Thank you for your input. I think he is a class act. I wish I could have seen him perform live.
@@darksidedeceptions Don't feel too bad about never having seen him live, as his act was so practiced and perfected to such a high degree of repeatability, that their is very little variance at all from performance-to-performance. Live or Recorded, you would be seeing the exact same thing - right down to the facial expressions - with only about a 2% variance from show to show. Not many performers can make that claim. That is why this footage is extra special, being as it captures an "extra perfect" Double Dove production - whereas with many other dove-workers, the variance is usually in the misses, awkward release, or something that throws their rhythm off. General Grant was steady and consistent as a metronome.
@@BaronMcCausland I like his flash Zombie vanish as well! He had attention to detail.
@@darksidedeceptions Yes, I agree. And, just like how GG worked-out the smoothest way to get into the Double Dove, he also worked-out the cleanest and most natural looking Zombie Ball Vanish with how to get into the "P" in the "TC", with that 'step-over' move he did, and with how the GG balls were made, to have a better "port" which didn't get hung-up. So to me, there are a couple of things going on with GG that made him so special. 1) His handling of his "helpers" - not talking about the doves here - and methodology behind how he presented an effect; 2) His gear - all it first-rate with zero issues in the designs or manufacture; and 3) as you said: His attention to detail, making every super clean-cut, natural, and direct.
