Kane Roberts – Saints and Sinners (1991)
Kane Roberts claim to fame was his stint as the lead guitar player for shock rocker, Alice Cooper.
He was a member of Alice Cooper’s band at the same time, as Kip Winger.
Both musicians branched out with music careers of their own after their stint with Alice.
Chances are, if you enjoyed Winger’s tunes to any degree, you will probably love Saints and Sinners. They style of music is quite similar.
Saints and Sinners is Roberts’ sophomore effort that was originally released on Geffen Records. This disc was produced by Sir Arthur Payson, who also has discs by RATT and Alice Cooper to his credit. Most of the songs on this disc were written by Roberts and Desmond Child.
With this record he had a couple of modest hits, with the track
Twisted and Does Anybody Really Fall In Love Anymore? which was written by Jon Bon Jovi. I like both of those tunes quite a bit, as well as Rebel Heart and Fighter.
The sound on this record is typical early 90’s pop metal, but I am OK with that. I got a lot of play out of this disc back when I owned it on cassette years ago. I tracked down another copy of this one recently.
Fans of 80’s Hair Metal will definitely enjoy this disc. It is out of print, but you can still find copies of this one through Amazon.com and Ebay. Happy Hunting!

Wonderful guitarist! I loved him! The album is great an dto my mind a bit unusuall. Hello from Russia! Margaret. Kane, thank you for your talent! Love you!
I loved Kane in Alice Cooper’s band. Not only did he shred, but he had his own style as well. I avoided this release though and have never heard it. I saw Desmond Child’s name and figured it would be pretty standard wimpy stuff.
This release was a nice find. I, too, bought the casette years ago, and really had no idea who Kane Roberts was. But there was a lot of good stuff to be heard on this one.
I liked ‘Saints and Sinners’ a LOT more than I did his first release, which I tracked down after hearing this one. I just can’t even play the first one, all the way thru before I give up.
This cd should be required in every Rocker’s library!
