Honey, Wheat and Laughter is the third studio album by Canadian singer Anne Murray issued in 1970 on Capitol Records.
Honey, Wheat and Laughter contained work by, among others, James Taylor and Gene MacLellan. The album was released only in Canada; however, after Murray's single "Snowbird" gained traction in the United States, several of its tracks were re-released on the 1970 compilation Snowbird.[1]
MacLellan's "Put Your Hand in the Hand" would become a top-ten hit for the band Ocean in 1971.
Reception
The album won the 1971 Juno Award for Best Produced MOR Album.[2]
