Island One Plus One Cassettes

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

One Plus One Cassettes was a series of cassettes that Island Records released. The inserts read "The complete album is on side one. It is also on side two but if you prefer to record your own programme on side two just record in the normal way and our recording will be automatically erased. Plus it is chrome tape to ensure top quality recording. 1+1. One side what you like. One side whatever you like."[1]

Launched on 13 February 1981
