"Hard Labor" is the eleventh album by American rock band Three Dog Night, released in 1974 (see 1974 in music).

The original album cover, depicting of the birth of a record album (shown at right), was deemed too controversial and was soon reworked with a huge bandage covering the "birth". The cover also includes an attached "birth record sheet" of the album. The label shown on the original cover's album is the same custom label used on the actual album.
