Too Many Cowboys is the second double-album and first album of live recordings by Dutch anarchist punk band The Ex. Recorded partly live and partly in the studio, Too Many Cowboys was the first of the Ex's records to be issued simultaneously in more than one country on both the band's own Ex Records in the Netherlands, by Ron Johnson Records in England, by Mordam Records in the United States, and by Di-Di Records in Greece.
In addition to material not available on any other Ex release, the album contains live versions of songs previously found on the band's double-single/book about the Spanish Civil War and from their then-forthcoming Peel Sessions compilation album, as well as a cover versions of songs by seminal communist Dutch punks The Rondos and contemporary British anarcho-punks Chumbawamba. The original vinyl double-LP came packed with newsprint posters and comics designed by members of the band and their friends, plus a single-sided flexi-disc featuring poet Nico Van Apeldoorn. The Ex reissued Too Many Cowboys on a single CD in 1993.
