She lost her two year battle with ALS this morning. She was my age, so I feel the "too young" really applies.

RIP. This is so sad. The Muffs have their first new album in a long time coming out later this month:

Awful news. She was so talented and obviously loved.

Rest In Peace.

My Facebook feed is packed with condolences, and many of them are from her friends. Although I didn't know her, many of my friends knew her, and I can tell you she was truly loved.

I really liked the Muffs especially their earlier releases. RIP Kim, you are free of your physical body illnesses. Thank you for all the music. RIP my dear.

Michael Shelley of WFMU had a Kim tribute show on Oct 5, featuring 15 tracks of Kim in The Muffs, and 1 in The Pandoras. Plus a long interview with The Muffs bassist Ronnie Barnett.

The 2 hour show track list:
http://www.wfmu.org/playlists/shows/88743

To listen to the show, click on the 'pop-up player!' button above the track list.

The Pandoras cut is their version of The Mindbenders "It's Getting Harder All The Time" from the Lulu movie "To Sir, With Love."
Pretty fab !!

Oh Yes, Elvis did offer such a touching testimonial. I will find a way to play some Muffs this W/E.
