SCOPE
RECORDS

Independent label: Scope Records was An offshoot of Lighning Records. Scope started out as a label for in-demand Disco and Reggae records, but towards the end of its life it put out a couple of Pop / New-Wave-type singles.  It was distributed by major record corporation WEA, who were also responsible for manufacture.  With WEA's muscle behind it Scope got two of its first six singles - Janet Kay's 'Silly Games' (SC-2; 1979) and Errol Dunkley's 'O. K. Fred' (SC-6; 1979) - into the Top 20.  There were other, lesser, successes, but despite them Scope seems to have vanished in 1980.   It appears to have issued just thirteen singles, in an SC-0 series, often with 12" versions as well as 7".  The number SC-13 seems not to have been used. Thanks to Robert Lyons For The Info.
