After working as a postman, bartender and truck packer, Scott joined his first

band, The Spektors, in 1964 as drummer and occasional lead singer. Two

years later the Spektors merged with another local band, The Winstons, and

formed The Valentines, in which Scott was co-lead singer with Vince

Lovegrove. The Valentines recorded several songs written by George Young

of The Easybeats including "Every Day I Have To Cry" which made the local

top 5. In 1970, after gaining a place on the National Top 30 with their single

"Juliette", the Valentines disbanded due to differing opinions within the band

concerning musical direction, and also after a much-publicised drug scandal.



Scott moved to Adelaide in 1970 and joined the progressive rock band

Fraternity. Fraternity released the LPs Livestock and Flaming Galah before

touring the U.K. in 1971, where they changed their name to "Fang". During

this time they played support slots for Status Quo and Geordie, whose front

man, Brian Johnson, later replaced Scott as the lead singer of AC/DC.



In 1973, just after returning to Australia from another tour of the UK,

Fraternity went on hiatus. In this period, Scott began singing in a band

named "Mount Lofty Rangers" which was formed by other ex-Fraternity

members. However, after leaving a rehearsal with Mount Lofty Rangers,

Scott suffered serious injuries from a motorcycle accident and subsequently

left the band. Fraternity however, later reformed and replaced Scott with

Jimmy Barnes.
