Dear Marek,
Judging from the above, you may have to lay off that 7.9% stuff!
<big grin>
It was 3 June 1973.
Turk and Bob Helm share the vocals on "Evolution Mama" and "50 Miles of Elbowroom".
Turk sings "St James Infirmary". 
Bob Helm and Leon Oakley sing "Dr Jazz", confirmed by the comment at the end of the tune. 
I too have a discography that lists Carl Lunceford as the only vocalist on the LP.
Where did your information come from?
Vocals are not mentioned on our autographed copy of the LP MPS MS 22097. 
Very kind regards,
Bill.
