FABLE – Get The "L" Outta Here! Reviver Records RP 102. Canadian release. FACTORY SEALED DOUBLE VINYL RECORD ALBUM SET. Originally issued in 1975. This edition issued in 2006. Includes a one pate (double-sided) insert with photos and band info. Pressed on 180g vinyl, double disc pressed on 3-sides, in a limited numbered edition of 500 copies; this is #23/500 (printed on the bottom left of the back side of the jacket). TRACKS:  Intro (Late Again), Kacheena, Why Is It Me, We’ll Find A Way, Hear Me Calling, Without Asking, Lady Of The Night, Believe In Me, A Cue Stick, Battle Of The Kneon Knights, And This Day, The Tramp, No Way Out, and The Last Track. DESCRIPTION:  Hearing the onslaught of stoner metal bands struggling desperately to recreate the airy deep end of mid-’70s heavy music is amusing… almost as much as actually coming across the occasional bona fide prog metal outfits long forgotten over the ages. Canadian band, Fable blended the questionable aesthetics of cape-laden Rush with Paranoid-era Black Sabbath’s eeriness and a moderately softer structural attack reminiscent of Budgie. The end result is the perfect of black light proto-metal/hard rock begging for a big ol’ bong suck and an imaginary dragon ride to the land of vans painted with wizards, barbarians, and Aztec goddesses. Surprisingly timeless despite an obviously specific historical specificity, Get The "L” Outta Here! provides the perfect document of a band with nothing affecting the excesses of ’70s rock’n’roll. Plenty of epic songs with an abundance of guitar soloing perfectly intertwined with smooth riffs, heavy on wah-wah pedal and jam band aura makes for a fun retrospective party listen. The vocalist has a smooth yet punchy delivery. And when compared to the accessibility of modern stoner rock this proves that minimal means often do produce the greater results. From what I found on the Internet their time line runs from from 1974-1979 with these recordings made in 1975, but remaining un-released at the time, which is surprising as the quality of music and musicianship is well above average. Obviously these guy flew under the radar, as I did a search on Canoe, the Canadian music website, and they don’t even have a mention. This recent batch of their album to surface represents the remaining copies, so don’t wait too long before you snatch your copy. Definitely recommended for fans of Canadian hard rock bands like Charlee and Mahogany Rush.

For your further reading enjoyment and enlightenment I offer the following from the band’s official website:

The rock band Fable was formed by individuals coming from such separate regions of Canada as Victoria and Toronto. Fable immediately found itself attracted to the "play it loud soundtrack" that accompanies peoples' lives who tend to live and die by this score. Screeching wah-wah guitars, thumping drums, and throbbing bass notes became the driving force behind this Canadian power trio. Also, yielding to their audiences' requests for a recording, Fable went into the studio and created a musical response for their adoring fans. Thus, the album Get The "L" Outta Here! was born. The title of the album reflects the indirect encouragement that Fable received from club owners, booking agents and even family members. Fable's Get The "L" Outta Here! represents a brilliant effort by the band and the album is dedicated to all those music lovers who appreciate and enjoy that 70's Canadian primeval Rock sound. Previous to Fable, however, there existed a group called Hell Hound. Following the last stage of Fable's musical history, Task Force came into being. Throughout these three bands, two musicians remained the core force:  Glen Politano and Gary Anderson.

All LPs are removed from their jackets and placed outside of the jacket for shipping. If an album comes sealed (and will be noted as such in the above description), it will be shipped whole unless you request that I open it up to place the disc outside of the jacket for shipping. Both jacket and disc are placed inside of an outer plastic sleeve before packing for shipping. I use professional corrugated record mailers.

*ALL CUSTOMERS*  

HANDLING TIME:  

Packages are usually shipped in less than 72 hours. NOTE:  This is not the same thing as delivery time, which begins once a package is turned over to the post office; averaging 3-7 business days for US delivery and 5 days to 3 weeks for international delivery (Italian customers it is not unusual for your package to take 4 weeks for delivery). International delivery is largely determined on how long it takes your local customs to process its mail. I will confirm receipt of payment and shipping date via my personal e-mail, adjust your filters accordingly. If you do not hear from me within the first three days after your payment, most likely my attempts to e-mail you have failed. Please keep me posted on your payment plans or any special requirements/needs of your purchase. 

RETURN POLICY:

Please e-mail me with specific details and I will get back to you with your options. I ask that if there is a problem with the item that you contact me as soon as possible after receiving it. Any item that must be returned is done so at the buyer’s expense. Any refund, exchange, or substitution/credit will be at the buyers choice, but not made until the original item is received back by me; in the condition as stated in the item description.  

NON-ARRIVAL OF PACKAGES: 

US Customers:  Please wait at least two weeks from my confirmed shipping date before contacting me about the non-arrival of your package. Packages are not shipped with confirmation; this service is optional and available upon request at your expense, e-mail me before making payment so I can invoice you accordingly. It has been several years since I’ve had a package not make its US destination, so risk is minimal.

INTERNATIONAL Customers:  Please wait at least 3 weeks from my confirmed shipping date before contacting me about the non-arrival of your package. If security is your concern please have your package registered (see above for fee). I do my best to quickly post packages, but once the package is in the hands of the world’s postal systems it is beyond my control. With first class mail international my only option for investigating the loss of your package is to verify that it left this country to its destination country. Most all delayed/lost packages have disappeared/been delayed after they have reached their destination country. NOTE:  Based on recent buyer feedback, International packages have been moving much slower these days; it is not unusual for a package to take over three weeks for delivery (especially to Italy), though normally packages should arrive in 7 to 15 business days.  

MULTI-ITEM PURCHASERS:

Multi-bid winners/purchasers:  If you combine various formats such as LPs, 7" singles, and CDs, please wait for my eBay invoice for the shipping total before making payment. For example, US customers purchasing an LP with a 7” single and/or CD, as LPs ship via media mail, your package will ship as media mail. All international purchases are shipped via first-class package international service so discounting will be determined by weight. Shipping discounts apply only to multi-item purchases that are paid for in one single payment and shipped in a single package.
