All The People Are Talkin' is the fifth studio album by American country music artist John Anderson. It was released in 1983 under Warner Bros. Records. Singles from it include the Number One country hit "Black Sheep" and "Let Somebody Else Drive".
Critical reception PopMatters called the songs "upbeat, bluesy pop-rock numbers that still sound thoroughly country in Anderson's hands." Chuck Eddy, in The Village Voice, called All the People Are Talkin' "raucous" and Anderson's "only real hair-up-the-butt rock'n'roll album."
