The album peaked at No. 68 on the Billboard 200, becoming Lorber's most successful album. "Facts of Love" peaked at No. 27 on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming the album's (and Lorber's) only Top 40 hit.[5]
Despite the success of Private Passion, Jeff Lorber was not satisfied with the output of his solo albums, stating that they have a more vocal and R&B approach with himself as a sideman. As a result, he took a hiatus in music before returning in 1993 with Worth Waiting For.[6] Meanwhile, the album launched Karyn White's solo career as she released her 1988 debut self-titled album, which contained 3 Top 10 singles.
