I can only think of England Made Me, Mountbatten the Last Viceroy and Inseminoid (and I think a lot of people would be happy if the latter never made it to CD at all).
I vaguely recall an LP release of a film when he went under the name Patrick John Scott.
What other film scores were released on LP by John Scott but haven't made it to shiny disc yet?
Thanks.

The Long Duel (1967) hasn't made it to CD yet.
I think he went under the name of Patrick John Scott for that one.

"Kevin, like you I am rediscovering John Scott - a brilliant composer!"
---------------------------------------
Hi Brendon. You don't have a spare copy of Lionheart do you? 
Agreed, he is a brilliant composer. The strange thing is, I always knew this but didn't pursue my love of the LP's I had by him (Greystoke, King Kong Lives and Man On Fire).
As I grow bored of a lot of today's scores and composers, I'm looking back to the stuff I might have missed from my soundtrack collecting heyday. It has resulted in my discovery of composers like Jerry Fielding and Stu Phillips, in addition to Mr Scott.
It's fun trawling the net, looking for titles that may be of interest to me.
I managed to bag a copy of The Deceivers on CD for about 10 dollars a few weeks back.
It's in my 'to play' list, along with many other goodies 
The cheapest title available by him is Ruby and that's also an enjoyable CD, especially if you like Man On Fire and Shoot To Kill.

ROCKET TO THE MOON ('67) on a rare U.K. Polydor (as Patrick John Scott)
Polydor is now part of Universal Music Group.
THE LONG DUEL ('67) (as Patrick John Scott)
This LP was on the Atco label in the U.S., now part of Warner Music Group. But the record was on Polydor in Britain, so that may present a problem.
ENGLAND MADE ME ('73) back to simply John Scott
This is a really rare one. The LP is a mixture of score tracks and popular songs from the 1930s. A company named American Artists Entertainment Group became involved in motion picture distribution and soundtracks in the 1970s, including ENGLAND MADE ME starring Peter Finch and Michael York. The soundtrack from that film featured vocalist Lana Cantrell and The London Philharmonic Orchestra, and was released through American Artists’ record label East Coast Records in cooperation with Dick James Music, (England).
The company’s website makes the claim that "Remembering," a song from that soundtrack sung by Lana Cantrell (music by John Scott, lyrics by Arthur Hamilton), was nominated for Best Song in a Motion Picture by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences. This is not true. The song did not receive a nomination. Perhaps it was on the short list of possible nominees. In any case, American Artists Entertainment Group (AAEG) would seem to be the current owner of the soundtrack from ENGLAND MADE ME. AAEG’s main corporate office is located at 2106 79th Court, Vero Beach, Florida 32966-1365 with Associate offices located in New York City and Hollywood.

I have the old LP of ENGLAND MADE ME. Some good stuff on that amongst the songs from the old radio-dio-dio-do.
Last August when "back hame" in Glasgow, I saw PJ Scott's LP for THE LONG DUEL in a second-hand record shop. That was like a blast from the past. I had a tingle up my spine like in the olden days of yore, just holding it in my hands and looking at it. Unfortunately had to leave it behind as it would 'av got broke in me hand luggage oan the plane back tae Spain.
