MoonJune Records released “Abracadabra In Osaka” by Soft Works on Dec. 4, 2020, a live recording from a gig (in Osaka) on Aug 11, 2003.

Allan only played 11 gigs with this band, and this album is the first official release of a live recording of this lineup. | [[File:Softworks.jpeg|200px|right]]"Abracadabra In Osaka" is a live album by [[Soft Works]].

The album appears to be available exclusively on Bandcamp, in the form of a CD including streaming and download, or as a digital only release. The repertoire is based on “Abracadabra”, with the addition of some Soft Machine classics and Hatfield And The North’s “Calyx”. Allan contributes two tunes: “Madam Vintage” and “Alphrazallan”, a composition previously only heard on “All Night Wrong”. There’s plenty of information available at the Bandcamp site. | The album appears to be available exclusively on Bandcamp, in the form of a CD (including streaming and download), or as a digital only release.
