Rompin' and Stompin' is the second studio album by American blues rock guitarist Robert Walker. It was recorded on October 22, 1997 and released on April 14, 1998 by Fedora Records. The album has been considered "congested" and with "unimaginative accompaniments" that give Walker "no room to cut up and go crazy" and that as a result, the album sounds like "any old cover band."[2]
