When Black Flag released their first album Damaged in 1981, they recorded it with their fourth vocalist Henry Rollins. In fact, the band almost recorded an alternate version of the album with their third vocalist Dez Cadena. Dez switched to second guitar and Henry from State of Alert took over on vocals. They wouldn't release another album till 1984 but in between they put out two compilation albums, Everything Went Black in 1982 and The First Four Years in 1983. The first one was a two LP set that included three sides of previously unreleased alternate versions of songs with the first three vocalists. The second one contained tracks from their EPs but also featured the first three vocalists. This is an alternate version of Damaged with Dez which could've replaced these two compilation albums.
