Scott 4 is Scott Walker's fifth solo album (a collection of songs he had performed for his BBC television series had been his fourth). It was originally released in late 1969 under his birth name, Noel Scott Engel, and was the first Walker album to consist solely of self-penned songs (Scott 1-3 had each featured translations of Jacques Brel songs, which were later compiled to form the album Scott Walker sings Jacques Brel, and the earlier albums had also featured some songs from other sources).

In 1996, an English indie-rock band named themselves Scott 4 in honour of this album.
