Wee Tam and the Big Huge is the fourth album by the Scottish psychedelic folk group the Incredible String Band, released in 1968 by Elektra Records as both a double LP (in Europe) and separate single LPs (in the US) known individually as Wee Tam and The Big Huge.

Consisting of a varied selection of songs by Robin Williamson and Mike Heron, the album features eclectic arrangements and structures. Around 15 instruments were employed, played mainly by Williamson and Heron but occasionally, in supporting roles, by Rose Simpson and Licorice McKechnie.
