I wondered that too Nick.
As far as I can see the grey cable will be perfectly OK on its own, only one Phono pug being used. That Phono plug may need replacing with one having a long centre pin. Phono plug goes into the output socket on the tape recorder and 3.5mm plug goes into the PC input. The OP will also need to take into account Paul Sherwin's comments in post #5.

You need a cable with a 3.5mm stereo jack on one end and a pair of phono plugs on the other. The recorder will only provide a mono signal so you will record this on one channel and noise or nothing on the other. Once this is done it's easy enough in Audacity to convert the mono track to stereo for burning to a CD.

Alternatively a cable with a Phono plug on one end and a 3.5mm plug on the other could be used.
