Colin Scot

There, he came to know members of folk revival vocal group the Yachtsmen Quartet, who regularly led hootenanny-style entertainments at Disneyland, sometimes featuring artists such as the Dillards, Hoyt Axton, José Feliciano, and John Denver.

Their first record, a version of Gordon Lightfoot's "Early Morning Rain", reached the French pop charts in 1966, and their next single, "Get Away" / "Up So High", comprised two songs both written by Scot, and was again successful in France.

Though not a commercial success at the time, the album "eventually took on the luster of a cult classic not only for its passionate songwriting, but for the impressive roster of musicians who contributed to it".

Scot continued to perform regularly around the country, and released two more albums for Warner Bros. Records, Just Another Clown (1973) and Out of the Blue (1974), but again they were not commercially successful.

[1] A popular and highly respected club performer with "dynamic stage presence and larger-than-life personality",[1] Scot was also known for his considerable alcohol consumption.
