THE PATHFINDER - The story of a journey, by Jim Jarratt & Mal Laws. The story of the folk rock epic that never was. In 1975 seven musicians set out to record The Pathfinder,

No-one at the time would have thought the 'journey' was to involve numerous setbacks, and would be 25 years in the making! This site is best appreciated with a full screen and your speakers switched ON!
