According to the Pink Floyd Hyperbase:

Embryo was recorded i 1969 for 'Ummagumma', but Pink Floyd were not satisfied with the recording. In 1970 EMI got Norman Smith to make a mix of the song anyway - and without accept from the band 'Embryo' were suddenly released on the compilation album 'Picnic'. The album was withdrawn, but later the same version of 'Embryo' were released on 'Works'.
