Rethought that date and it may have been 1980 or 1982.

There was a way to recover them. My VB Classic still works no bad cells and I
got it in 1978.

Nick,
That reminded me of a time when my boss, who liked to
screw around, turned the power switch on my VB classic
off in the middle of a meeting where I was supposed to
take notes. I just calmly said, "Gerry, I hope you
have been writing down our points of understanding,
because you just lost the whole file".
For those who didn't know, the VB Classic wrote a
table of contents at the beginning of the cassette so
each file could be navigated to by the tape transport.
