A late-1970s funk and soul single by Rick James, one of the most distinctive figures in the funk movement of the era. Known for blending funk, soul, and rock influences, Rick James became one of the most recognisable artists on the Motown Records roster during the late 1970s and early 1980s.

“17” comes from his early period when he was developing the edgy funk style that would later produce major hits such as Super Freak. The record carries the gritty funk groove typical of James’s work and remains of interest to collectors of classic funk and early Motown crossover releases.
