Bill Aucoin, who discovered Kiss and helped build the rock group into a musical and merchandising juggernaut, died June 28 at Aventura (Fla.) Hospital and Medical Center of complications from prostate cancer surgery. He was 66.
A former television cinematographer, Aucoin met Kissin 1973 in New York and helped transform the makeup-wearing, fire-breathing quartet into a moneymaking machine. He financed the band's first tour on his personal American Express card when money was tight, but he was well rewarded when the band's popularity exploded in 1975 with the hit live version of "Rock and Roll All Nite."
"He was the fifth Kiss," said drummer Peter Criss, who had Aucoin serve as the best man at his second wedding. "If it wasn't for Bill, there would be no Kiss."
After parting with Kiss during the early 1980s, Aucoin managed Billy Squier and Billy Idol.
