	Even Cowgirls Get the Blues - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Even Cowgirls Get the Blues is a 1976 novel by Tom Robbins.
		Cowgirls tells the story of Sissy Hankshaw, a woman born with a mutation (she would not call it a defect) giving her enormously large thumbs.
		Robbins writes short chapters filled with philosophical asides and quips (such as noting that because amoebas reproduce by binary fission, the first amoeba is still alive) and often speaking to the reader (chapter 88 begins with the narrator noting that the book now has as many chapters as a piano has keys).

	John Cale : Even Cowgirls Get the Blues - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		A companion to the superlative Sabotage/Live album, immortalizing the best-known phase of Cale's end-of-the-'70s residency at CBGB, Even Cowgirls Get the Blues captures performer and performance on either side of that momentous watershed, four tracks from December 1978 and four from almost precisely a year later.
		Twelve months on, the performance is even more brittle, as a (slightly rearranged) band locks into the mantric "Even Cowgirls Get the Blues," a spellbinding Deerfrance showcase that only slowly finds room for Cale's own darkly laconic vocal.
		A duet for caterwaul and cataclysm, it's a haunted excursion, as mantric as it's menacing, but "Decade" is even more extreme, a one-off, ten-minute improvisation built around metronomic drums, crazed feedback, and an absolute disregard for anything but the sonic terror of the moment.

	EVEN COWGIRLS GET THE BLUES (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		"Even Cowgirls Get the Blues" seems to be about, more than anything else, the awakening of lesbian feelings in its main character.
		As part of her awakening, Sissy is sent to the Rubber Rose Ranch, a retreat owned by the Countess which serves as a live-in beauty clinic.
		"Even Cowgirls Get the Blues" is presented in a stylized way, disguising what might otherwise appear to be a rampant lack of acting talent in its cast.

	Even Cowgirls Get the Blues Movie: Even Cowgirls Get the Blues DVD is available from Bestprices.com
		Made on a budget of $7.5 million, "Cowgirls" was going to be a major studio project, but Tristar backed away from the picture and gave Fine Line Features the greenlight to buy it.
		When she arrives at the beauty-ranch, Sissy's introduced to a band of free-living, free-loving cowgirls rebelling against their drag queen employer and ranch owner, The Countess.
		The cowgirls on the Rubber Rose Ranch are staging a rebellion.

		Even Cowgirls Get the Blues is perhaps the ultimate love story.
		There's a wonderful storyline here, with our thumb-tied heroine struggling to find herself, the all cowgirl ranch, and the interrupted migration of the protected whooping cranes, but alas, it was hidden amongst the rambling passages, and I almost couldn't see the story for the words.
		Robbins can occasionally be a hard author to get started in, some of his other books have a tendancy to drag the reader down before they really get caught up in the story, however this is not true in Cowgirls.

	Even Cowgirls Get The Blues - Movie Review
		With those two things going for it, Even Cowgirls Get the Blues should have turned out at least OK. How it ended up as one of the biggest cowpies of the 1990s is something of a mystery, although there’s plenty of evidence on screen to shovel through.
		In another memorable moment, the cowgirls lift their skirts to assault intruders with the unpleasant scent of their not-so-fresh nether regions.
		Trapped in the same world all of us are, trying to find love, fit in, and get along, she believes that her happiness has been found with these cowgirls, but sadness is just as likely to hit there as anywhere else, and, as the title goes, Even Cowgirls get the Blues.

	The DVD Journal \| Quick Reviews: Even Cowgirls Get the Blues
		That's certainly the case with Tom Robbins'counterculture yarn Even Cowgirls Get the Blues, which caught the fancy of indie darling Gus Van Sant, who leveraged the clout built up over his previous successes to bring the story of big-thumbed Sissy Hankshaw to the big screen in 1993.
		About the only thing Van Sant gets right is the casting of Uma Thurman as Sissy, a former model turned hitchhiking nomad who finds herself lured back into the modeling business by her effete agent, The Countess (John Hurt).
		After an awkward, drugged-out threesome with some extravagant New Yorkers, Sissy gets sent out west to shoot a commercial at The Countess's ranch, where the lovely and refined Miss Adrian (Angie Dickenson) wars with the lesbian cowgirls charged with the upkeep of the establishment.

	City Pages - Even Cowgirls Get the Blues
		The Cowgirls are more enthusiastic in their pursuit of what Todd calls "gritty music, human music" than most punk bands half their age (which most punk bands are these days).
		The band's live shows are genuinely energizing, fueled by the compact and follicularly-challenged Todd, who bounces off speaker cabinets, drum risers, bassist Leonard Kerriger, and anything else nearby during his frenzied odes to the commonplace.
		With Leigh around, the band is crunching into slower Stones-style blues numbers and more overt country twangers to leaven their usual program of thrashers.

		Robbins is an exceptional writer: his style is positive, uplifting, educational, honest, sensual, encapsulating joie de vivre.
		In this book, Sissy Hankshaw is a typically strong, unconventional female character who follows a Jack Kerouac inspired trek, eventually meeting Jellybean Bonanza (what a name!) on a cowgirl ranch for the climax (tic), plus the usual Robbins male guru to help see the light.
		There is some girlie action, which makes some folks inclined to believe that it's just a 'gay' book, but there's much more to the story than that and should appeal to all with Robbins enchanting his readers to be open-minded.
