About The Record:

Honey is the twenty-second studio album by American pop singer Andy Williams, released in the spring of 1968 by Columbia Records. In reviewing the LP William Ruhlmann of Allmusic traced the progression of the Williams formula, noting that "he had been drawing on the recent hit parade for some of his material for years. But Honey marked his complete crossover to such an approach. Where earlier Williams albums had been a canny mix of movie songs, standards, pop hits, and foreign -- especially French -- material, ten of Honey's 11 tracks were songs that had been Top 40 hits in the last two years." The album made its first appearance on Billboard's Top LPs chart in the issue dated June 8, 1968, and remained there for 40 weeks, peaking at No. 9. It entered the UK album chart shortly thereafter in July and reached No. 4 over the course of 17 weeks, and the Recording Industry Association of America awarded the album Gold certification on November 1 of that year.
