I Was Doing All Right is a jazz standard composed by George Gershwin with lyrics by Ira Gershwin. It was introduced by Ella Logan in the 1937 film The Goldwyn Follies and first recorded on December 30, 1937 for Brunswick Records. The tune is commonly considered part of the Great American Songbook and has appeared on albums such as Ella Fitzgerald Sings the George and Ira Gershwin Song Book (1959). Notable later recordings include Jimmy Dorsey and His Orchestra, Artie Shaw, Carmen McRae, Louis Armstrong with Oscar Peterson, Susannah McCorkle, and Diana Krall. The song remains a versatile mid tempo piece for vocalists and instrumentalists alike, with a persistent presence in Gershwin tribute repertoire.
