		</div><p>Hot on the heels of the resurgence of vinyl, cassette tapes are making a comeback.</p>
<p>Sales of old-fashioned tapes were up 74% in America last year, according to Nielsen, which tracks music sales in the States.</p>
<p>It should be pointed out, however, that the numbers are still relatively small – 129,000 last year compared to 74,000 the previous year.</p>
<p>To put that in context, 200.8 million albums were sold in total, Billboard reports, with 13.1 million sold on vinyl.</p>
<p>The top selling album on cassette was Guardians Of The Galaxy: Awesome Mix Vol. 1 – the tape played by the lead character Peter Quill in the Marvel movie.</p>
<p>It was actually released in 2014, but sold 4,000 copies last year.</p>
