PINK FLOYD WORKS
12" Vinyl Record LP - 1983
Rainbow Rim Label
The album was released by Pink Floyd's former American label, Capitol Records, to compete with their then-current studio album The Final Cut. The album is particularly notable for including the track "Embryo," an outtake from the Ummagumma album that later became a concert staple in a greatly elongated form.
Previously, the track had only appeared on a scarce various artists compilation album promoting Pink Floyd's UK label Harvest Records entitled Picnic – A Breath of Fresh Air in January 1970.
Also unique to Works are the tracks "Brain Damage" and "Eclipse," which are alternative stereo mixes, rumored[by whom?] to be "fold-down" mixes from the quadraphonic edition of Dark Side of the Moon.
Additionally, some tracks are cross-faded into one another, such as "See Emily Play" into "Several Species..." and "Fearless" into "Brain Damage." The album also opens with a heartbeat similar to the opening of Dark Side of the Moon that fades into the wind intro of "One of These Days." This creates a bookend effect on side 1, which ends with the heartbeat fadeout of "Eclipse."
