    Does Anyone Remember "The Point"

    O.K. I'm Dating Myself but!
    Sometime in the "70's" Harry Nillson recorded an Album Called "The Point" It all related to a fictional Land where all the people had Pointed Head's Except for One Small Boy named Oblio! Does anybody Else Remember who or what Arrow Was? { I Do!}

                      I explained it all in the first post, if you dont remember it "so sorry" it was a popular enough album/story at the time that they actually made an animated movie out of it!

                          Harry Nillson - The Point! Click here to see this CD at Amazon.com!

                          Under the direction of Fred Wolf--the man who helmed most of the early Little Rascals shorts--you might expect The Point to be a benignly silly children's romp. It is not. The real guiding force here is full-grown rascal Harry Nilsson, who not only wrote the story and songs that comprise this made-for-TV cartoon, but recorded, produced, and even narrated them as well. The Point follows the travails of a rather hapless round-headed boy named Oblio, who can't seem to get over in a land of pointed people and things. Rich with semantic trickery, The Point is probably the most existential children's yarn ever told. But there's an elegance to these songs, and a satirical wink to their content, that--like any great story--transcends the cartoon's "intended" audience. If you enjoyed The Point as a child, give it another spin; not for nostalgia's sake, but for the wholly different spell it casts on adult ears. --Matt Hanks

                          The Point will be released on DVD on August 19, 2003!
