SOFT WORKS - ABRACADABRA IN OSAKA

  • Soft Works: Abracadabra In Osaka
        (2020, 2cd, --, moonjune records)
Discogs:
Soft Works was a first attempt to resurrect the legendary band Soft Machine, and was formed with ex-members of the band at the request of Leonardo Pavkovic for a Japanese tour in 2003. But soon, Allan Holdsworth would leave and history repeated itself when he was replaced by John Etheridge - who already replaced Holdsworth in Soft Machine in 1975 - and the band changed its name to Soft Machine Legacy.

Soft Works featured 

  • Elton Dean
  • Allan Holdsworth
  • Hugh Hopper
  • John Marshall

and released "Abracadabra" in 2003.

Almost 20 years later, the MoonJune Records label released the recording of the 2003 Osaka concert.

Beautiful.
