That’s Incredible! – Friends Of P (early Rentals demo)

That’s Incredible! – Friends Of P. (Demo).

Note: Very first demo of the Rentals hit “Friend of P.” prior to the moog and violins aspect of that recording were added.

That’s Incredible! was the very first incarnation of Weezer bassist Matt Sharp’s side project called The Rentals. Recorded by Tom Grimley at his studio Poop Alley in L.A. in April 1994 (a month prior to the first Weezer record debuting), the ‘That’s Incredible!’ demos form the basis of what would become the first Rentals album ‘Return Of The Rentals’ in 1995.

The line-up of ‘That’s Incredible!’ consisted of Sharp (vocals, bass and lead guitar), Weezer bandmate Patrick Wilson (drums), That Dog’s Rachel Haden (female vocals) and Supersport 2000′s Rod Cervera (rhythm guitar). Out of this line-up, only Sharp and Cervera would become part of The Rentals, as other commitments prevented Haden and Wilson from becoming full-time participants in what would become a more time-consuming project for Sharp once signed to Maverick Records in early 1995.
