Solo John/Solo Scott is a split-EP by John Walker and Scott Walker, members of the American pop group The Walker Brothers. It was released in 1966 and reached number four on the UK EP Chart.^[1] While the EP was released as two solo efforts due to it being released while the group was active, it is generally categorised as a Walker Brothers release.^{[by whom?]}

The EP was produced by John Franz with musical accompaniment directed by Reg Guest. It includes the original Scott Walker composition "Mrs. Murphy". All four tracks have since been re-released on the expanded edition of The Walker Brothers' second album, Portrait.
