LIVE and unleashed is the first Pavlov's Dog livealbum in it's 36 year history. The band is touring again regulary since 2004, and receives terrific reviews for energetic, emotional, and congenial concerts: 　　 　　„The group harmonizes perfectly and comes off with enormous spirit. Surkamp's voice is so unique, so affecting, it makes the show very special. That's the real deal!“ (Rock Hard 11/2009) 　　 　　„The musicians surrounding David Surkamp and Mike Safron are firstclass. The voice is unmistakeable, the audience facinated. David sings these songs with an unbeateable passion. Sensational.“ (Squealer-Rocks 11/2009) 　　 　　"I had to wait 30 years to see Pavlov's Dog live. And it was better than everything I saw in 2007. David Surkamp's voice is still great.150 minutes goose skin and pure fun playing. Who can beat this?“ (Breakout 4/2008) 　　 　　LIVE and unleashed captures the unique spirit of a Pavlov's Dog show authentically. The 7 piece live-lineup, incl. violin, melotron, piano, guitar and David Surkamp's unique voice, generates the typical Pavlov's Dog sound. Some arrangements are quite different to the studioversions, and overall the band is live more heavy. Powerful rocksongs such as Breaking Ice or Looking For My Shadow, take turns with ballads such as Standing Here With You or Angel's Twilight Jump. Branded by beautiful violin melodies and Surkamp's affecting vocals, Pavlov's Dog live gives the heebie-jeebies for granted. 　　 　　Live and unleashed comprehends a cross-section of all Pavlov's Dog and David Surkamp periods. It contains not only tracks of each Pavlov's Dog studioalbum, but as well Heart Of Mine (a track originally by HIFI, Surkamp's band in the 80ies together with Ian Matthews), and with Wrong and Looking For My Shadow two tracks of Surkamp's 2006 soloalbum Dancing On The Edge Of A Teacup. And despite Live and unleashed was recorded in 2009, it comprehends already four tracks of the brand new studioalbum Echo & Boo, which was released in October 2010. 　　 　　LIVE and unleashed, and the tour 2009, are dedicated to Sigfried Carver. The original Pavlov's Dog violin player passed away 2009.
