More Info:

Gold Vinyl. It's been a half century since Pavlov's Dog burst onto the burgeoning progressive rock scene of the early 1970s. Hailing from the city of St. Louis, Missouri, their heady blend of rock, classical and folkmusic turned them into cult legends. The band has seen lots of lineup changes and internal turmoil over the years, leading to extended breaks between album releases. But today, David Surkamp - lead singer, main songwriter and last remaining original member of Pavlov's Dog - continues to fly the banner high, accompanied by an accomplished group of musicians that is a credit to the band's good name. This year - exactly 50 years since Pavlov Dog recorded their legendary debut Pampered Menial - the group plans to re-release an anniversary version of the album as a golden Vinyl. Pampered Menial, recorded in 1974, is regarded as a milestone in the progressive rock genre. Produced by the team of Murry Krugman and Sandy Pearlman (Blue Öyster Cult), the album opens with "Julia" - the ballad that made the band famous. Moreover, the nine tracks - most of them written by singer David Surkamp - create the blueprint for their unmistakable sound. Prog magazine calls the album "a thrilling experience, with impassioned folk ballads, psych rock and irresistible drama." Pampered Menial ranked #71 in eclipsed magazine's listing of the 150 Best Prog Rock Albums.
