Re: obvious big influence is obvious.....
I've never noticed the Steve Miller influence in MMJ or the Replacements influence in Lucero. Interesting.
Now for some with some 'Mats influence that I hear loud as day:
Replacements-Two Cow Garage
Replacements- Slobberbone
Replacements- Hold Steady

I actually think the 'Mats influence on THS isn't as obvious/strong as the perception of it is. I agree wholeheartedly with Two Cow Garage and Slobberbone though. I hear Westerberg and the drunken sloppy beautiful mix of rock, punk, and country in the middle of Lucero's career in a big, big way. The whole quiet little songs and cranking of the amps being intertwined that Westerberg has talked about before.
In addition:
Thin Lizzy - The Hold Steady

The very first time I ever heard THS, with Boys and Girls in America, I asked my buddy if they were from Minneapolis. He kind of looked at me and stared and said not really but that some of them were and how did I know that. I could immediately tell that they had listened to an awful lot of Westerberg and company. Maybe it's not as obvious as advertised but it's obvious to me.

It's definitely there, I just personally think it gets brought up more because of the Minneapolis thing.

Oh, I like this a lot! I'd put it a little later, though--more Aqualung/Thick As A Brick/Passion Play era. Which CD should I start with?

lots of slick sheen, jazzy reverb, echo, twisty keys, bells, effects with stellar guitar, bad hair and polyester pants. perhaps a cowbell or wood block occasionally.

The raw, in your face embracing of sexuality, alcohol/drugs, and self destructive relationships of Lucinda Williams is all over her work. I immediately drew parallels to Lucinda when I first listened to Lydia and not just because they're both women.

Cheesetastic fake performance. Love the song.
