Radio LabourStart expands!

We're delighted to announce two big steps forward:

First of all, we have more than tripled our capacity on Live365.com, meaning that instead of the 300 megabytes of storage we previously had, we've paid to upgrade that to 1,000 megabytes. We currently have 384 tracks (nearly all of that is music) and we expect to increase that to over 1,000 in the next few weeks.

Second -- and this is why we're seeing such a rapid expansion of our library of labour music -- we'd like to welcome on board our new Music Editor, Mark Gregory. Mark has long edited the Union Songs website, and was involved in the Wobbly Radio project launched a few years back by the New South Wales Labour Council. His Union Songs website contains lyrics to, and notes about, many of the songs we are now playing on Radio LabourStart. If you have suggestions, questions or comments about the music we're playing on Radio LabourStart, you can write to Mark here.
