In
October 2004, the members of Soft Works, with John Etheridge
permanently replacing Holdsworth, took the name "Soft Machine Legacy"
and performed two festival shows; one on 9 October in Turkey and the
other on 15 October in the Czech Republic. Liam Genockey temporarily
replaced John Marshall who had ligament problems. The new band's line-up
was Elton Dean, John Etheridge, Hugh Hopper and Liam Genockey. Soft
Machine Legacy released three albums: Live in Zaandam (2205), the studio
album Soft Machine Legacy (2006), which was recorded in September 2005
and features fresh material, and Live at the New Morning (2006). After
Elton Dean died in February 2006, the band continued with the British
saxophonist and flautist Theo Travis, formerly of Gong and The Tangent.
In
December 2006, the new Legacy line-up recorded the album Steam in Jon
Hiseman's studio. Steam was released in August 2007 by Moonjune Records
before a European tour. Hopper left the band in 2008 because he was
suffering from leukaemia, so for live performances Fred Thelonious Baker
deputising for Hopper. Following Hopper's death in 2009, the band
announced they would continue with Roy Babbington again replacing Hopper
on bass.
Soft Machine Legacy released their fifth album in October
2010; the 58-minute record Live Adventures was recorded live in October
2009 in Austria and Germany during a European tour. Founding Soft
Machine bassist Kevin Ayers died in February 2013 at aged 68, and
77-year-old Daevid Allen died in March 2015 following a short battle
with cancer. On 18 March 2013, the Legacy band released a new studio
album titled Burden of Proof. Travis stated: "legally we could actually
be called Soft Machine but for various reasons it was decided to be one
step removed".
