Aftermath
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.
