A Step In The Right Direction
"A Step in the Right Direction" is a song written by Robert and Richard Sherman for the 1971, Walt Disney musical film production ''Bedknobs and Broomsticks''. Lost scene Upon rediscovering the song on the original soundtrack album, Disney decided to reconstruct the original running length of ''Bedknobs and Broomsticks'', with all the songs. Most of the film material was found, but one minute of another song, "Portobello Road", had to be reconstructed from a work print with digital re-coloration to match the film quality of the main content.

However, records show that the song was part of the film before the Radio City engagement.
