Kid Marine is 3rd album by Robert Pollard, released in 1999. It is the first release of Robert Pollard's Fading Captain Series. Pollard has stated that the album is about Jeff "Kid Marine" Davis, the person pictured on the cover [1]. Robert told Mojo magazine, "My personal favorite, a weird record, almost a concept album, about the typical Ohio male and what he does - drink, watch television, eat pizza. It got mixed reviews, there are people who hate it and others who think it's our best record and I'm on their side. I just love the songs. It feels like one piece, like it all fits together. I like the cover and I like the whole package."
