How about `C-x C-j' ? Just like dired-jump: 

,----[ C-h k C-x C-j ]
| C-x C-j runs the command dired-jump
|   which is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `dired-x.el'.
| It is bound to C-x C-j.
| (dired-jump &optional other-window)
| 
| Jump to dired buffer corresponding to current buffer.
| If in a file, dired the current directory and move to file's line.
| If in Dired already, pop up a level and goto old directory's line.
| In case the proper dired file line cannot be found, refresh the dired
| buffer and try again.
| 
| [back]
`----

I have a similar implementation in my .emacs. Beside opening the dired
buffer, it looks better to place the point under corresponding track
file name(again, same as dired-jump does.), namely: 

    (goto-char (point-min))
    (dired-search-forward (file-name-nondirectory name) nil t 1)))

oh, `dired-search-forward' is defined in dired-isearch.el[1], could be
replaced with `search-forward' alike.
