No, it wasn't, but it was inspired (in places) by Diddley's She's Alright.
EDIT: The Stones's version is based on Diddley's version - although he probably didn't write it himself...

I think they deserve some publishing royalties for coping with thousands of screaming teenagers for five years.
True that Diddley had a song called "She's Alright" as well, but I guess the song The Stones were 'inspired' was the one called "Im Alright", recorded live in July 1963, and released January 1964 in BO DIDDLEY'S BEACH DAY PARTY.
Listen here:
I don't think it would have been too much asked if they had added Ellas McDaniel to the credits.... But probably Andrew Loog Oldham decided to take as many bits from the royalty cake as possible (think of another 'original' "We Want The Stones"..)

"We'd like to play a Bo Diddley number"...
You mean Bo Diddley did a Jimmy Page even before Jimmy Page ever did a Jimmy Page?
Fancy that!
Those were inspirational days, or maybe they were feeling 'alright' a lot at the time...
It could be that the Stones picked up the song straight from Bo's live performances - I guess "I'm Alright" might have been a regular number in his sets at the time he toured with The Stones in England during the late 1963 (the live album was released in January 1964).
Funnily, Diddley also recorded a song called "I Know (I'm Alright"), but I haven't been able to trace when it was recorded/released, but I guess between "She's Alright" and "I'm Alright". It's here:
- Doxa
LOL! I stand corrected
Cheers, Rockman! You rock!
Well, now we could sketch a morphosis of the song:
"I'm Alright" (Cooke-Anthony, 1959) -> "She's Alright" (McDaniel, 1959) -> "I Know" (McDaniel, 1961) -> "I'm Alright" (McDaniel, 1963) -> "I'm Alright" (Nanker Phelge, 1965).
Could it be that Bo didn't want to make too big fuss about The Stones version, since he probably he wasn't keen on elaborating the song's history either...
- Doxa
It's always huge numbers of these "special editions" for Record Store Day ...I firmly believe that anyone who wants to get a hold of this EP will succeed..
Talk about your favorite band.

These things seem to end up on EBAY very quickly and after the initial 'rush' to buy it goes down they settle at a very reasonable price.
So if you don't get it on Black Friday, not to despair!

Press release:
ABKCO Records, a proud participant in Record Store Day's upcoming "Back To Black Friday" independent record store event, is releasing Got Live If You Want It!, a 7" E.P. by the Rolling Stones on "Black Friday," November 29th. The set includes songs not found on the U.S. album of the same title. The tracks were recorded on the band's fifth British tour at concert dates in March, 1965 in London, Liverpool and Manchester and released in 1965. The E.P., their first live release, which went to #1 on the E.P. chart in the U.K. in June of that year. The release serves an audio document of a time when the Rolling Stones, in their original line up of Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts, Brian Jones and Bill Wyman, had become headlining sensations and were well on their way to being recognized as "World's Greatest Rock and Roll Band."
The E.P., the title of which is derived from Slim Harpo's 1957 single "Got Love If You Want It" on the Excello label, covers songs associated with Solomon Burke - "Everybody Needs Somebody to Love" - Otis Redding - "Pain In My Heart" - Nat King Cole - "Route 66" - and Hank Snow - "I'm Moving On". "I'm Alright," an early Jagger-Richards composition, is also included as is the crowd chant "We Want The Stones."
Track Listing:
1. We Want The Stones
2. Everybody Needs Somebody To Love
3. Pain In My Heart
4. Route 66
5. I'm Moving On
6. I'm Alright

It's funny on the NME Awards show Charlie introduces I'm Alright as a Bo Diddley number. Jagger is smiling next to him and yells What?!
Funny how the band takes a songwriting credit for the opening We Want The Stones, which is basically just a bunch of teenagers yelling that!

There's a nice compilation called UK EP Collection which has The Rolling Stones, Five By Five and Got Live if You Want It, complete. Available on Spotify and Pirate Bay. 
Personally, I think both Got Lives are quite enjoyable. Together with England '65 (released with the Charlie Is My Darling movie recently) they form a decent document of live '60s Stones. There's more that could be released though -- Paris '66+67, Hawaii '66, BBC ...

But then we have to remember that a wonderful r&b band called Little Anthony & The Imperials did also "I'm Alright" already in 1959, which might have inspired Bo Diddley (who would actually record "She's Alright" two months later...)
And here is 'inspired' Bo:

A better idea would have been to release Live In England ยด65 on both vinyl and CD!

Sorry, but this is all I know:
The Rolling Stones will release an expanded version of their classic 1965 "Got Live if you Want it" EP to celebrate Black Friday.
According to an article posted Nov. 18 at Noise11.com, the reissued extended play 45 rpm vinyl will feature songs not initially included on the original release.
And:
Songs which were recorded during the 'Got Live if you Want it" concert tapings but did not appear on the EP and were never released, include : "Down the Road a Piece, "Little Red Rooster" and "The Last Time."
