Positively Phranc is an album by folk singer-songwriter Phranc, released in 1991.
Unlike 1989's polished I Enjoy Being a Girl, Positively Phranc marks a return to her raw acoustic solo work. The song "Gertrude Stein" is Phranc's cover version of Jonathan Richman's "Pablo Picasso". "Tipton" is a tribute to transgender jazz musician Billy Tipton. "Surfer Girl" is a cover of the famous Beach Boys tune.
