Rolling Stone (3/10/94, p.65) - 3 1/2 Stars - Good Plus - "...lush instrumentals varying from twang-guitar atmospherics to the bittersweet carnival feeling of Fellini film scores....it's more than enough to tide fans over until [lang's] next studio affair...." Spin (1/94, p.74) - Highly Recommended - "...[EVEN COWGIRLS] is guaranteed restaurant background--you'll be dining to it for at least six months... [k.d. lang's] firmly planted in the American West, tumbling with tumbleweeds, spreading out that voice like a silk prairie blanket..." Entertainment Weekly (11/5/93, p.67) - "...Of the 16 cuts on EVEN COWGIRLS GET THE BLUES, only half feature vocals, and only four aspire to full-length songs...But on repeated plays, Lang's highly eccentric effort proves fascinatingly eclectic...." - Rating: B Q (12/93, p.112) - 4 Stars - Excellent - "...[EVEN COWGIRLS] boasts six new vocal performances [from lang] and her singing remains the definition of sublime..." Melody Maker (11/6/93, p.31) - "...she crafts an immaculate, unfussy soundtrack...this is certainly her most appealing work to date...." NME (Magazine) (11/20/93, p.33) - 8 - Excellent - "...Cheerfully close to the original mood of the novel, the music is wonderful...."
