Consenting Adults by Brad Mehldau, Mark Turner, Peter Bernstein
Recorded in New York City the day after Christmas in 1994 by the collective quintet M.T.B., Consenting Adults is a snapshot of five elite young improvisers -- pianist Brad Mehldau, tenor saxophonist Mark Turner, guitarist Peter Bernstein, bassist Larry Grenadier and drummer Leon Parker -- who will be among the movers and shakers of 21st Century Jazz at the conclusion of their postgraduate education.
Now, these musicians are stars, travelling all over the world and recording as leaders. The New York Times referred to Mehldau as "among the most celebrated pianists of his generation".
All five artists recorded extensively for Criss Cross Jazz, either as leader or as sideman.

Criss Cross Records captures the aesthetic essence of cutting-edge hardcore New York jazz more consistently than any other label on 420+ albums recorded.. Founder Gerry Teekens (1935-2019), a linguistics professor by day and a semi-professional drummer by night, was a connoisseur of groove -- he operated by the motto, “If you have a great band, but not a great drummer, forget it.”
