You will want to look at the more premium types of laminate underlayments that will give you your vapor barrier, sound deadening, and a little extra insulation.
Lowes should have that in stock for you.

underlayment or not on concrete slab?
I am going to install a "Swiftlock" laminate (item #171683 from Lowes), I do not want a "hollow" sounding floor. I know I need a vapor barrier but do I need a foam underlayment as well?

All laminates sound hollow to me. That is because THEY ARE HOLLOW.
We used sound solutions brand as vapor barrier on our laminate. It worked well,no clackity clack when walking on the floors.
