For Episode 76 of Stark Reality, guest Nancy Yahiro gives us a slamming playlist of Northern Soul, RnB, Funk, a little Hip Hop too, featuring tracks by Grady Tate, Edwin Starr, Irma Thomas, Aretha Franklin, Marvin Gaye, Clarence Carter, Gangstarr and much more.  She has very deep crates as to be expected after digging and DJing for so many years.

Northern Spain-based selector and 45 digger Nancy Yahiro is a native of Southern California and first started DJing punk and soul at her college’s radio station (KUCI) in 1985. She became increasingly obsessed with soul 45s and started selling duplicates and becoming a record dealer. In 1997 Nancy started the Golden State Soul Society with Cid Hernandez and continued running it with Gabby Beeby until she moved to Italy. In Italy, Nancy started the Rimini Rare Soul Weekender and lived there for 11 years, DJed all over the country. She has also played records in the US, Argentina, UK, Germany, Spain, Sweden, etc etc.

To hear Nancy’s exclusive Stark Reality Interview with Host James Dier aka $mall ¢hange, where she goes deep into her lifetime of 45 collecting and deejaying, her political activism on Israel, the apathy of the world and much more, go to Episode 75 of Stark Reality here, or wherever you get your podcasts.
