Le Bonheur is the eighth album by experimental French singer Brigitte Fontaine and the sixth by Areski Belkacem, released in 1975 on the Saravah label. It is their fourth collaborative album.
The album features some abstracts from plays and noises (like animal cries). The booklet claims that the album was recorded "during Winter 1975 in a theater, a kitchen, a barn and a studio."
