I'm Tired of Driving

I'm Tired of Driving is an album by saxophonist/pianist Eddie Harris, recorded in 1978 and released on the RCA label.

Reception
The Philadelphia Daily News wrote that "Harris sings in an outrageous falsetto and a bathroom baritone." Newsday deemed the album a "rather unfocused amalgam of rhythm and blues, gospel, bossa nova and disco drone."

Richard S. Ginell of AllMusic called the album a "somewhat tepid brew of mostly R&B/slanted pop/jazz music with a whiff of disco now and then, utilizing Harris' array of straight and electronically-altered vocals, lots of acoustic tenor sax, and some piano," and said that, "although EH's personal sax sound is always recognizable, and he is more crisply recorded than on any of his Atlantic records, the LP's anonymous, pre-packaged '70s feeling drains much of Harris' personality right out of the studio."
