Steppin' Out is a compilation album of songs featuring Eric Clapton, released in 1981. It contains eight of the 12 tracks that appeared originally on John Mayall's Blues Breakers with Eric Clapton in 1966, plus a Mayall/Clapton single, "Lonely Years," two tracks ("Third Degree" and "Calcutta Blues") from a 1966 recording session by Champion Jack Dupree on which Clapton played guitar, and "Pretty Girls Everywhere", which is from an Otis Spann session, also featuring Clapton.
