After making an appearance on “Good Day LA” to promote his new book Keep Moving and upcoming concert, the great Dick Van Dyke and the Vantastix, sang a brilliant impromptu a cappella version of the eponymous title song from the 1968 film “Chitty Chitty Bang Bang” for a very surprised and appreciative audience at the Denny’s Restaurant in Santa Monica. Less than a year ago, dedicated fans performed the same song for Van Dyke on his 90th birthday.

Dick Van Dyke and his quartet The Vantastix do a little singing after having breakfast at Denny’s. The group just finished a visit to Good Day LA to promote their upcoming show in Cerritos, Dick’s book “Keep Moving”, and their album “Put On A Happy Face”.
