The Reason Why I'm Talking S—t is an album by American jazz saxophonist Eddie Harris recorded in 1975 and released on the Atlantic label.[1] [2]
The Allmusic review stated "One wonders who talked Atlantic Records into issuing this offbeat LP, the jazz world's equivalent of the Elvis talking album. It's a compilation of Eddie Harris comedy monologues before sets at nightclubs in Minneapolis, Evanston, Milwaukee and Redondo Beach, with plenty of sex to go around. Actually, Eddie is pretty droll in his X-rated way, telling the audience what is really on their minds at nightclubs... Hard to find – which is just as well".[3]
