Able Label

Able Label

The Able Label was an independent record label from Brisbane, Australia.

Grant McLennan & Robert Forster of The Go-Betweens released their first two singles 'Lee Remick' & 'People Say' on it in 1978 and 1979. Later, it allowed other "Brisbane" groups, The Numbers (later to become The Riptides), The Apartments and the Four Gods to press their own records using the Able Label logo. One such band that missed out was RAZAR who were refused permission to use the logo on their seminal 1978 single Task Force. Abel Records were limited pressings ranging from 500 - 700 and are now considered collectors' items.
