the "EVOLUTION"LABEL? FOUND A EMPTY SLEEVE OF A GROUP CALLED "LIGHTHOUSE"FOUND KRAFTWERK-AUTOBAN-.99 YESTERDAYA SEALED CHUBB ROCK - TREAT'EM RIGHT

Lighthouse was the label's biggest act, a horn-rock group in the Blood,Sweat & Tears/Chicago mode. But there's no special mystique about Evolution Records (for me, anyway); that was just another label out to make a buck.

However there's an LP by a group called Game that's pretty good.
Also, I'm pretty sure the Hot Rocks soundtrack came out on that label. Still not unpacked so I may be wrong on that one.
I also found a soul release on that label but I'm totally blanking........
One of those labels that's worth giving a listen if you stumble onto something at a place with a listening station. But as The Non said don't loose sleep. And as I will say don't put too much effort into trying to track that stuff down. Most importantly don't pay much at all.
the black led zeppelin?
I think I know what you mean. I forget the title/artist, but I do recall liner notes by Moms Mabley and an unflattering, out-of-focus cover shot of a black man (the artist) absentmindedly staring into space. I've seen that around a few times, but passed on it - the song titles looked kinda loungey.
(Now that I think about it...didn't Motown 67 talk about this on his record reviews page?)
