Always a 'secondary' format, rather than the main way people bought singles in the UK, but I'm still interested to know the first and last UK #1s which were available on this format.

As far as I can tell, the first was
John Lennon - Woman - February 1981
K 79195M

The last one was most likely Busted ‎– Who's David in February 2004

Very few were pressed, as the format had been discontinued in November 2003.

23 years of the cassette single at #1 :headphones:
