Arrow has a Point

In 1970, the talented song-writer and performer, Harry Nilsson, composed an acid influenced children’s story about a round-headed boy named Oblio and his dog, Arrow, who were outsiders in the land called Point. This land where everything, including its residents, had a point became a difficult place for Oblio and Arrow to be accepted. How did Harry come up with this concept? "I was on acid and I looked at the trees and I realized that they all came to points, and the little branches came to points, and the houses came to point. I thought, 'Oh! Everything has a point, and if it doesn't, then there's a point to it.'"
The original album inserts by artist, Gary Lund (above), showcase our blue colored pooch, Arrow, and all of his adventures. Harry’s musical concept was later adapted into an animated special and a musical play. The Point, narrated by Nilsson, reached #25 on the Billboard charts, and launched the successful hit song about Oblio’s favorite canine companion, "Me And My Arrow."
