Product Description

Amazon.ca

Out of Range marks the end of the first phase of Ani DiFranco's career, not so much in terms of the way she goes about her business (as always, on her own terms) but in terms of her songwriting, arranging, performing, and, to a greater extent than ever before, growing popularity. On Range, for the first time, DiFranco's songs sound like they wouldn't be out of place on the radio (in this case, that's a good thing); on the very first track, "Buildings and Bridges," she expresses herself with greater grace and subtlety than ever before. But the message is still loud and clear: she can take what the world will throw at her, and she will persevere. The rest of the album unfolds along similar lines and often reveals similar treasures. --Randy Silver

5.0 out of 5 stars A Staple in Your Ani Collection Jun 18 2004
By bethtexas
Format:Audio CD
OK, so you loved NOT A PRETTY GIRL, IMPERFECTLY and PUDDLE DIVE and you want another album by Ani that's "kind of like those". You're in luck -- there's one left! It's called OUT OF RANGE and it's great.

(Not that the earlier, more simple albums and the later, more synthesized albums aren't great too, but this one sort of rounds out the 'in-your-face folk style quadrilogy".)

Songs like OVERLAP capture deeply personal moments with anger, longing and guts.

YOU HAD TIME is about wishing you loved someone that you know is a good match for you, and who -- even worse -- ouch -- happens to love you deeply.

And of course, there's her trademark political FACE UP AND SING, which is probably the reason for the cliche, "You go, girl." :)

It's another must-have in your Classic Ani collection.

5.0 out of 5 stars tied for my favorite Feb 19 2004
By K. Miller
Format:Audio CD
This is going to go down as one of my favorite albums of all time. It was my first album by ani and to this day i could listin to it whether i am happy or sad or lonely or content. It is a beautiful, beautiful album. It has some of the best songs possibly ever written like buildings and bridges and face up and sing. Its simply a pleasure to listen to.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent introduction to Ani Oct 20 2003
By Kevin
Format:Audio CD
This was my first Ani CD when she was touring to promote it back in the nineties. While it's not her best, it's a great introduction to an artist in transition from an acoustic folk singer to something a little more diverse. Her later albums contain broader influences and more complex orchestrations with a greater variety of instruments. I think this album shows that she was beginning to feel the limitations of being simply a girl with a guitar and ready to try something different...

5.0 out of 5 stars Yes! (the perfect point of entry and a personal favorite)
Out Of Range is the perfect midpoint of Ani DiFranco's catalog, even as she moves farther and farther away from the aural and social concepts that it represents. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Ani is AWESOME
I think Ani is one of the most amazing and honest of my time. She should be a role model for every female.

5.0 out of 5 stars ani is great
out of range seems to be ani's more upbeat and cheerful album, although cheerful is perhaps not the best word to be used.
ani difranco seems to have a lyric for everyone. Read more
