Relics is an album by Pink Floyd released in 1971. The album was released on 14 May in the UK and 15 July in the United States. Initially released by Starline, the album was reissued by Music for Pleasure in the United Kingdom; Harvest and Capitol distributed the album in the United States.
The release of Relics was sparked by the success of Atom Heart Mother which peaked at number 1 on the British charts.
Until the more definitive release of The Early Singles (1992, part of Shine On), Relics was most noted for its inclusion of Syd Barrett-era hit singles, "Arnold Layne" and "See Emily Play", as well as B-sides to three other singles. The Relics versions of "Paintbox", "Julia Dream" and "Careful with That Axe, Eugene" are mixed in stereo. The album also includes a previously unreleased studio recording of a Roger Waters composition, "Biding My Time", which had otherwise only been heard by live audiences as part of "The Man and The Journey" concert sequence.
