How much do we know about Stonehenge? Less than we think. And what has Stonehenge got to do with the Ice Age? More than we might think. This blog is mostly devoted to the problems of where the Stonehenge bluestones came from, and how they got from their source areas to the monument.

Or could there be, underneath that tantalising shroud, a presumably very HEAVY keyboard once played by the likes of GENESIS [this could upset quite a few atheistic Geologists out there] or MIKE AND THE ORTHOSTAT MECHANICS. As a few of us know, Sheffielder Mike Rutherford has since physically metamorphosed into someone not unlike MPP (happens to us all with the passage of time... ............................in "THE LIVING YEARS").
That magnificent, primitive keyboard has played some other outstanding New (stoned) Age hits from Mike and/or his friends, such as:-
ALL I NEED IS A MIRACLE [to lug this all the way to Wiltshire via the A40]
OVER MY SHOULDER [and I'll rupture my spleen and join the BeeGees]
SOLSBURY HILL [outside Bath now, near Peter Gabriel's pad. Gonna lay my heavy burden down soon, on God's own Salisbury Plain! Amen]
HE'S NOT HEAVY, HE'S MY BLUESTONE ( But themSarsen stones weigh me down, down, down)
