Skip Groff, legendary DC punk producer and record store owner, dies at 70

I made the pilgrimage to Yesterday & Today once the summer I worked in D.C. and picked up a few prized rarities, but I had no idea of the wider background talked about here... That the Limp was the store’s in-house label (I had been looking for at least one Limp release) and that store personnel included Ian MacKaye, Henry Rollins, Ted Nicely, etc.
