American; out of California. The Scotti Brothers were Tony and Ben, and their label was one of many which always meant more in their native country than over here. That said, Leif Garrett took it into the Singles Chart twice in the decade with which this site is concerned, and Survivor repeated that feat in the '80s. As well as making records, Scotti Brothers had interests in films and televison. The company kept going until 1997, when its catalogue was sold to Zomba Records. In Britain the label first appeared in 1979, with distribution by WEA; Scotti Brothers singles shared a K-10000 numerical series with those of Atlantic. In the '80s CBS took over from WEA, from which point the numbering changed to interlock with that of the other CBS labels. The discography below only covers the 1970s.
