Bill Goodwin - Master Magician. "When thinking about the album cover photograph for the JaR Scene 29 album picture cover shoot (photographed by Denise Marie Luko), I had a vision for the set, which is a close up magic room in the Magic Castle noted as The Hat and Hare. The Magic Castle does not allow photographs so it was time to call in a favor from my good friend, Bill Goodwin, who is the best of the best close-up magicians in the world and is the librarian at the Magical Castle. Bill's clout pulled this off. So when doing the photo shoot, I asked Randy if tit would be OK to include Bill in the photo as to have three guys sitting at the poker table playing cards. Randy agreed leading to the JaR album cover photo.

I have noted the above since if any of you are interested in learning close up magic, please check out Bill's website." - Jay.
