Honey, Wheat and Laughter

HONEY, WHEAT AND LAUGHTER
 
 
Honey, Wheat and Laughter  is the third studio album by Anne Murray issued in 1970 on Capitol Records.  The album was only released in Canada.  It contained work by, among others, James Taylor and Gene MacLellan; MacLellan’s “Put Your Hand in the Hand” would become a top-ten hit for the band Ocean in 1971.  (More from Wikipedia)
 
 

I think of “Put Your Hand in the Hand” as the quintessential early Christian contemporary song.  “Put Your Hand in the Hand” was recorded previously by Anne Murray, who is the first Canadian female solo artist to reach #1 on the U.S. charts; the song appears on her third album, Honey, Wheat and Laughter (1970).
