Editing Damaged (Black Flag album) (section)

==Known outtakes and alternate versions==
In addition to the known unreleased version of "Rise Above" recorded during the album sessions and the alternate take of "Damaged I", a version of Black Flag's arrangement of "[[Louie Louie#Black Flag version|Louie Louie]]" was also recorded. According to Rollins in ''Get in the Van'', this version featured the band going into "a strange jam at the end until the tape ran out;" It was never mixed down in any form.<ref name="van"/> As of July 2006, it was unknown if the master tapes to these outtakes were still in existence. Henry Rollins later stated on his radio show's blog that alternate versions of "What I See" and "at least one other song that I can't remember" also came out of the ''Damaged'' sessions, and that other outtakes from Black Flag's other albums also exist.<ref name="harmony">Henry Rollins, {{usurped|1=[https://web.archive.org/web/20060614170405/http://www.harmonyinmyhead.com/ HarmonyInMyHead.com]}}, annotated playlist for show of July 11, 2006, accessed July 17, 2006.</ref>

According to Black Flag's engineer and live sound man Spot, a nearly complete version of ''Damaged'' was recorded at Golden Age Studios with Dez Cadena doing vocal duties. This session is where the tracks for the ''Six Pack'' EP came from. No official version of the remainder of this recording session has ever been released, although unlicensed copies have circulated in tape trading circles for years. A comparison of the unreleased Dez Cadena sessions with the released LP suggests that the vocal cadence and presentation of the Cadena sessions were used as a reference by the band prior to recording the final album.

An alternate version of "Depression" was recorded to be the b-side of the "Rise Above" single.<ref name="van"/>
