It’s Alright is a 1975 song by Graham Central Station, which first appeared on the 1975 album Ain’t No 'Bout-A-Doubt It. It is written by Larry Graham. Prince started performing the song live in 1994. A live version (in a medley with Partyman) was streamed in the NPG Music Club’s Glam Slam VIP room in March 2006.
A version of the track recorded during a rehearsal was streamed on 3rdEye TV Show # 5 in 2013, in a medley with Dancing Machine and Partyman (a snippet of (Theme Song From) Which Way Is Up?, which often precedes Dancing Machine when played live, can also be heard as the rehearsal begins). A live version of the medley from 30 June 2013 (a.m.) at City Winery Chicago, Chicago, Illinois, USA was also streamed on a 3rdEye TV Show in 2013.
No studio version by Prince of It’s Alright is believed to exist.
Prince has also covered other songs by Graham Central Station, including The Jam and Water from the same album.
