We remember Richard M. Sherman, half of the Sherman Brothers, the duo who provided the soundtrack to the childhood of generations. Amongst their countless Disney scores, they also lent their talents to several endeavours on Broadway.
This selection of footage was shot during the filming of the "Portobello Road" number on Bedknobs and Broomsticks; first seen are brief shots of the film's star, Angela Lansbury, with choreographer Donald McKayle, followed by the Sherman Brothers rehearsing the number on a piano. David Tomlinson is then seen recording the song's reprise in the studio, accompanied by Irwin Kostal.
