Even amongst the extravagances of the late 60s/early 70s, Harry Nilsson’s sixth studio album still stands out as fairly out-there concept. Devised by Nilsson during an acid trip, The Point! was the soundtrack to an animated film about Oblio: a fictional, round-headed boy trying to find his way in a far-away land of pointy-headed people. Rather than a folly, however, The Point! stands up with Nilsson’s best records of the period. The songs sparkle (“Me And My Arrow” should make anyone’s Nilsson best-of lists) and the concept and story (on record narrated by Nilsson, where Dustin Hoffman had taken the role for the televised cartoon) has a guileless charm that’s irresistible to adults and children alike.
