Hi Denny,

As far as I'm aware the only place "Scion" crops up is on the B side of "Woodstock". Woodstock isn't even on the British version of the first album, which was released here before the single, which then went on to be a hit.That album and the single were solo releases in all but name (the backing done by his ex band Fairport). When he had the hit he then quickly formed the band which recorded the next two albums and toured.
The "Scion" CD features out-takes from the second album "Later that same year" and BBC radio sessions.
I have the single, but it's not to hand. I'll transcribe the lyrics on this post when I get a chance and PM you when i have
love, john.
