Another alternative, although nowhere even near as simple, is to
purchase a VoIP FXO/FXP device such a Sipura 3000, and configure it to
talk through an Asterisk server that records the phone call.  With both
an FXO/FXP ports (as in, true ports, not just a passthrough) you're able
to use a normal handset, with your normal POTS line, no worries (Analog
<-> VoIP <-> POTS).

Glaringly obvious statement but also make sure to tell the person on the
other end that the phone conversation will be recorded at the start of
the phone call; privacy laws ahoy otherwise.
