Harry Nilsson was an unbelievable songwriter. And quite the character. Explaing the concept behind his 1971 album The Point—a fable about the only round-headed person in the Pointed Village—Nilsson said: "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 a point. I thought, 'Oh! Everything has a point, and if it doesn't, then there's a point to it." You said it, Harry.
