A thin film magnetic head for a magnetic tape drive to correctly read out, even if off-track, the high density magnetic patterns recorded on magnetic tape without picking up noise from adjacent tracks. A thin film magnetic head is comprised of a first composite thin film magnetic head having a read element and write element with complementary parallel read gaps and write gaps to read and write information on a first track of a magnetic tape, and a second composite thin film magnetic head having a read element and write element with a complementary parallel read gap and a write gap to read and write information on a second track adjacent to a first track, and the read gap and the write gap of the first magnetic head form a right angle relative to the drive direction of the magnetic tape, and the read gap and the write gap of the second magnetic head form an oblique (theta) angle relative to the drive direction of the magnetic tape.
