A tune Gore played to followers (9)
I believe the answer is:
entourage
'followers' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'a tune gore played' is the wordplay.
'played' indicates anagramming the letters.
'a'+'tune'+'gore'='atunegore'
'atunegore' is an anagram of 'ENTOURAGE'.
'to' is the link.
(Other definitions for entourage that I've seen before include "Staff" , "The people accompanying a VIP" , "Group of followers" , "Support team" , "Group of attendants" .)
