Works (Pink Floyd album)

Works is a compilation album of songs by British progressive rock band Pink Floyd, released in 1983.

It features a variety of material, including two of the band's early singles "Arnold Layne" and "See Emily Play", alternative mixes of tracks from The Dark Side of the Moon and the studio outtake "Embryo".

[4] 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.

This creates a bookend effect on side 1, which ends with the heartbeat fadeout of "Eclipse".

The cover art, illustrated by Ron Larson, was inspired by the c. 1948 poster "Nederland industrialiseert" ("The Netherlands industrialise"),[5] designed by Dutch graphic artist Wladimir Flem.
