Jigsaw are a successful British pop music group fronted by the singing/songwrighting duo Clive Scott and Des Dyer.

Originally a five piece band formed in 1966 they went on to score a number of hit singles around the world. They also released a total of no fewer than 13 albums.

Although they originally disbanded in the mid-1980's following the release of the single "You Bring Out The Best In Me," they have reformed several times since for revivals.

They are best known for the 1975 world-wide hit "Sky High," which was their first million-selling record, but have achieved much more since, both as a collective group and as individuals, over the course of the last 30 years.
