Personnel: Rick James; Roxanne Shante, Teena Marie, Smokey Robinson. Liner Note Author: Amy Linden. Photographers: Ron Wolfson; Robert Matheu. Arrangers: Reggie Andrews; Rick James. Containing cuts like his love song to marijuana, "Mary Jane," his song of praise to underage girls, "17," and his signature, sexy "Super Freak," this anthology of Rick James's classic 1970s and '80s tracks is an irresistible mix of classic R&B, disco, and the kind of funk that Prince was later to make his own. Taking his Parliament/Funkadelic influence all the way to the bank, James's "Cold Blooded" and "Love Gun" broke new ground in sensual dance music; also included here are "Ebony Eyes," his sophisticated-sounding collaboration with Smokey Robinson, and "Standing on the Top," recorded with the Temptations.
