The Point! is available on CD.

BMG's deluxe re-issue of The Point! is now available for pre-order at Amazon.com:

The re-release of The Point! will be available on November 19th. The album is re-mastered and comes in a slipcase with two booklets. The first is a reproduction of the comic book; the other includes new liner notes by Curtis Armstrong and artwork including the original The Point! cover designed by Dean Torrence before he decided to use the needlepoint version.

There are four previously unreleased bonus tracks on the album:

^"Life Line^" (Take 4) - An early piano/organ vocal take.

^"Down To The Valley^" - An alternate version. Remixed, and including the coda which was cut off the single release. Very "Pet-Soundsy."

^"Think About Your Troubles^" (Take 4) - A completely different version, recorded with the orchestra in 1969. At this stage, The Point! as a concept probably didn't exist. [Note from Roger Smith: Harry Nilsson told Allen Zentz that he often visualized a song, almost like a cartoon, while writing. It was while writing ^"Think About Your Troubles^" that Harry conceived The Point!]

^"I'll Never Leave You^" - We discovered some time ago that this great Nilsson song was originally intended for the The Point! and was only removed at the last minute. We thought the "Point!" version was lost, but found this demo on an unrelated tape, unmarked. Unfortunately, it is also incomplete. On the tape it cuts off abruptly after ninety seconds. They are, however, an exquisite ninety seconds, so we included it as an unlisted bonus track. Piano/vocal demo. Beautiful.
