A significant international collaboration is the focus for this entry: the 7-inch single “Don’t Leave Me Now” by Japanese hard rock legends Vow Wow. Released on July 22, 1987, this 45 RPM vinyl (catalog number WTP-17978) was issued on the Eastworld label (Toshiba EMI).
This single is highly notable as it was produced by the legendary John Wetton (of UK, Asia, and King Crimson fame), signaling Vow Wow’s deep push into the international market.
The single features two tracks:
A: Don’t Leave Me Now
B: Cry No More
The A-side, “Don’t Leave Me Now,” was co-written by Wetton (lyrics) and keyboardist Rei Atsumi (music). It became a key track for the band and was later included on their fifth full-length album, “V.” The B-side, “Cry No More,” was penned by guitarist Kyoji Yamamoto and lyricist John Pearson.
WTP-17978 stands as a crucial single from Vow Wow’s peak international era, showcasing their polished, world-class sound, guided by a true rock icon.
