KARYN WHITE - KARYN WHITE DELUXE EDITION
Big Break Records proudly presents the first ever deluxe
remaster of Karyn White, which includes a staggering 19 bonus tracks, rare
promotional remixes and exclusive interviews with Karyn White, Daryl Simmons
and Jeff Lorber, and presented in a super jewel case complete with a 20-page
booklet and detailed liner notes. Karyn White became one of the most successful
international artists in R&B with this, her debut album, in 1988. The album
enjoyed platinum sales and spun off five hit singles including “Siperwoman,”
arguably the most popular and enduring soul ballad of the era. This 2CD deluxe
edition marks the 30th anniversary of White’s first hit and features bonus
songs and remixes. Karyn White began her career as a session singer for R&B
artist O’Bryan, while they were supporting Cameo. After using former Tower Of
Power vocalist Michael Jeffries’ studio, both White and Jeffries were signed as
the lead vocalists for Jazz Fusion artist Jeff Lorber’s Warner Bros. debut
album in 1986. The majority of the album was produced by LA & Babyface at
the height of both their creative and commercial powers, including the New Jack
Swing styled first single “The Way You Lover Me.”
