Arthur Kane
Arthur Harold Kane Jr is a musician best known as the bassist of the pioneering glam rock band The New York Dolls. Kane was a founding member of the Dolls in 1971 and remained an integral part of the group until it was removed in 1975, shortly after the departures of Johnny Thunders and Jerry Nolan. In 2004, after decades of estrangement from Dolls frontman David Johansen, Kane joined the surviving Dolls group to train and perform a reunion concert in London, the theme of the 2005 New York Doll documentary. Kane is also known for his subculture fashion style and his way of pronouncing quirky aphorisms in his unique low voice. Kane's nickname, "Killer", was inspired by the first article on Dolls, in which the reporter described Kane as "the killer bassist". Kane also says he was inspired by the nemesis of 1930s sci-fi hero Buck Rogers, a villain named Killer Kane.
