It isn't hard to see why some jazz listeners might approach Doin' the D with trepidation. Flutist Alexander Zonjic is a smooth jazz artist, and one of the musicians featured on this 2009 release is the saxophonist so many jazz musicians love to hate: Kenny G. However, the album's title song boasts Brian Bromberg on acoustic bass – and keyboardist Jeff Lorber co-produced many of the tracks in addition to helping with the composing, arranging, and engineering.
This is a charitable recording of Mark Knopfler’s instrumental,‘Going Home (Theme From Local Hero)’, produced in aid of the Teenage Cancer Trust and Teen Cancer America.
