I.O.U. is the second studio album by guitarist Allan Holdsworth, released in 1982 through Luna Crack Records/I.O.U. Records originally on vinyl; a CD edition was reissued in 1985 through Enigma Records and a remaster in 2008 through Belle Antique. A previous album, Velvet Darkness, was released in 1976 without Holdsworth's consent, therefore making this (in his view) his first official solo release. Furthermore, many tracks from Velvet Darkness were remade and retitled for I.O.U..
John W. Patterson of AllMusic awarded I.O.U. 4.5 stars out of 5, describing it as "high-quality jazz fusion interplay" and praising Holdsworth's "well-crafted soloing".
All tracks written by Allan Holdsworth, except where noted.
