Relics is a compilation album by Pink Floyd released in 1971 (see 1971 in music). The album was released May 14 in the UK and July 15 in the United States. A re-mastered CD was released in 1996 with a different album cover.
Relics includes the two Syd Barrett era hit singles, not previously available on a Pink Floyd album, plus a previously- unreleased, studio recording of a Roger Waters composition, "Biding my Time", which had otherwise only been heard by live audiences.
