He was most notable for working with Elvis Presley from 1972 until his death in 1977, during which time he was once booed off the stage in Madison Square Garden due to the crowds impatience to see Presley perform.

In 1961, Kahane was selected along with Bill Cosby as one of "Time" magazine's outstanding comedians.
