About the Album: What’s really fantasmagorical is that the man who gave the world its most well known spy, the one and only James Bond, also gave the world its most delightful magical car, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang (a classic Ian Fleming title if ever there was one). In 1968, Albert R. Broccoli, co-producer of the Bond films, produced a lavish musical film version, starring Dick Van Dyke as inventor Caractacus Potts, Sally Ann Howes as Truly Scrumptious, and a host of fine character actors – Lionel Jeffries, Benny Hill, Gert Frobe (Goldfinger himself), Robert Helpmann, Anna Quayle, Desmond Llewelyn (another Bond regular, Q), along with Adrian Hall and Heather Ripley as Caractacus’ children, Jeremy and Jemima. The screenplay was by another wonderful, fanciful author, Roald Dahl (Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, James and the Giant Peach), along with Ken Hughes, with additional dialogue by Richard Maibaum. Hughes also directed the film. Along for the ride were cameraman Christopher Challis, production designer and Bond regular Ken Adam, choreographers Marc Breaux and Dee Dee Wood (Mary Poppins) – and for the film’s most important element, its score, the tuneful, incredibly catchy songs by the team of Richard M. Sherman and Robert B. Sherman, also of Mary Poppins fame, with all the musical elements brought together by the brilliant Irwin Kostal.
