Highs in the Mid-Sixties, Volume 17 (subtitled Texas, Part 4) is a compilation album in the Highs in the Mid-Sixties series, of recordings that were released in Texas. This is one of five volumes in the series that collects songs by Texas bands; the others are Highs in the Mid-Sixties, Volume 11, Highs in the Mid-Sixties, Volume 12, Highs in the Mid-Sixties, Volume 13 and Highs in the Mid-Sixties, Volume 23.
The album was released in 1985 as an LP by AIP Records (as #AIP-10026).
"We Sell Soul" by the Spades was a regional hit by one of the first bands headed by Roky Erickson. He was one of the founding members of the legendary psychedelic rock band 13th Floor Elevators. Neil Ford (also spelled Neal Ford) from Houston was in a succession of bands including the Ramadas, whose "Shame on You" was included on Essential Pebbles, Volume 2. The Iguanas on this album are not the same band that launched Iggy Pop's career, although a track by those Iguanas is included on Highs in the Mid-Sixties, Volume 19. The track listed as "The Darkest Hour (Part 1)" is actually the instrumental B-side, Part 2.
