"I'm Alright" is a 1985 album by Loudon Wainwright III. It was his third release on Rounder Records, recorded in London. It was produced by Richard Thompson, who also played electric lead guitar on several songs.

'Screaming Issue', one of Wainwright's few collaborations - this time with his second wife Suzzy Roche of The Roches - was never compiled, nor has it appeared on a live album. It concerned his then infant daughter Lucy Wainwright Roche, who has since played and recorded with him.
