DJM Records (also known as Dick James Music) was the British independent record label, set up in the late 1960s by British music publisher Dick James. It was distributed by Pye Records in the UK, and various other companies around the world, including the US. Elton John was prominent on DJM, except in the United States and Canada where his records were issued on the MCA Records label. In 1976, he began his own label, The Rocket Record Company. He brought a lawsuit against DJM in the 1980s over the rights to his earlier (pre-1976) work.

  • La Dick James Music Records (DJM Records) è stata un'etichetta discografica britannica, fondata nel 1969 da Dick James. Era distribuita dalla Pye Records in Inghilterra e da altre etichette in varie parti del mondo.È nota per aver messo sotto contratto Elton John sin dagli inizi della sua carriera; infatti, quando il pianista di Pinner era ancora uno sconosciuto, firmava ancora decine di canzoni per altri artisti come Roger Cook e Lulu; in seguito però, notando le loro potenzialità, la casa discografica pubblica alcuni singoli (I've Been Loving You, primo singolo a nome Elton John, Lady Samantha e It's Me That You Need) e un album di esordio, Empty Sky (1969): ancora acerbo, realizzato con pochi mezzi e senza un vero produttore (Steve Brown era un tecnico della DJM), non ottiene riscontri (it)
