I have it on CD with this cover and on LP with another covor (Color). 

I remember I was a bit disappointed when I heard it first since I had thought if Max Roach is the special guest, there will be two Drummers !!!

Maybe I was influenced by the Mingus Dolphy Thing "The Great Concert of Charles Mingus" and thought that everything else might be even more far out.

I know what you mean.  This was mine, courtesy of my college library:

 

This was my first Mingus Album. Still one of my favourites. 

In my case this was one of the first jazz Albums I had, anyway…….so let´s say I had a good start.

of Course I know and own the legendary Art Pepper + Rhythm Section, but I don´t even know About the names from the second Album. Maybe it´s another Kind of Music than that I´m focussed on.

You would probably find that the second album is your kind of music, that is if Stan Getz, Anita O'Day and Annie Ross are your kind of music.

Mel & Maggie weren't exactly Bing & Rosie, but they made an agreeable partnership on this album.  The drawback is the material.  The Broadway season of 1960 must not have been a cornucopia of riches.  Of the four shows represented here, only Camelot has really endured.  Three songs here are likely to be familiar to the average listener:  "Hey, Look Me Over", "If Ever I Would Leave You" and "Make Someone Happy".  The other songs are largely forgettable.  The CD adds 8 bonus Broadway originated songs taken from albums made by each singer around this period.

As there was a discussion James Moody dissing Ornette Coleman and so on, I´d state here: Ornette Coleman sits in on "Sonny Moon" but if this would be the only music I knew of Ornette Coleman, I´d also say it´s not what I´d like to hear. 

I´m a big fan of Ornette Coleman, from the first quartet to Prime Time and all, but here he sounds quite "under the weather" and cannot contribute even to that single tune, and Sonny Moon for Two is almost as simple as "C Jam Blues". 

Anyway I think OC didn´t WANT to participate. He takes much time to get on stage , several minutes after he is announced.
