DBM



A DIY label from 1979, and no relation to the mid-'80s DBM.  A Christmas single by Dave Miller pairing 'Santa's Lament' with 'First Christmas Together' seems to have been DBM's only release; the chirpy 'Lament' sounds like a distant relative of 'Does Your Chewing Gum Lose Its Flavour On The Bedpost Overnight' and is built around a double entendre, while 'First Christmas' is straightforward and sincere.  The single was made through custom recording firm Ellie Jay, as its matrix number (EJSP-9314) indicates.  Pressing was by Lyntone; one of that company's numbers, LYN-7545, is in the run-off.
