Rompin' and Stompin' is the second studio album by American blues rock guitarist Robert Walker. It was recorded on November 22, 1997 and released on April 14, 1998 by Fedora Records, a sub-label of Jazz Depot. 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."[1]
