A sticker on the back cover reads 'MADE IN FRANCE', however all other signs seem to suggest that it was released in the United Kingdom. It could have been made in France, but that's very likely not where it was primarily released.

There is a very high chance that this promotional cassette does not actually exist. It is listed solely because there was an auction held on eBay a number of years back which claimed the existence of the item. However, no picture accompanied the auction, which puts much criticism on its legitimacy. Additionally, the catalog number which was provided in the auction is the same catalog number one would find on a couple CD copies of 'Four Songs'. The 'D' in the prefix part of the catalog number (RARDS-) traditionally indicates a disc, not a cassette. So, don't invest stock in this supposed promotional cassette copy of 'Four Songs'.
