Much of the material compiled on ''Pebbles, Volume 6: Chicago Pt. 1'' is also available on the 1983 album '' Highs in the Mid-Sixties, Volume 4''. The cover track listing does not correctly correlate with the sequence on the CD itself as the Huns' "Winning Ticket" is actually the third song; "Come with Me" by the Boyz and "Run Around" by the Cavedwellers are not featured on the CD; and the final track is a radio station promo. The following album in the ''Pebbles'' series, '' Pebbles, Volume 7: Chicago Pt. 2'' also focuses on Chicago artists.
