Reception

AllMusic awarded the album with three stars and its review by Jason Ankeny describes the album as: "The lounge-kitsch debut from Corduroy spotlights the group's blend of jazz and funk sounds".Ankeny, Jason Allmusic Review: ''Dad Man Cat'' AllMusic, accessed 8 August 2018 In his review for '' Louder Than War'', Matt Mead states: "''Dad Man Cat'' takes a stab at 1960’s Michael Caine, '' Alfie'' and '' Blowup '' with its revved up organ groves, silky bass smooth lines, fast moving guitar riffs and drums that sound, at times, to being played at 10,000 mph".
