'american music group's good general beat' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'good general beat' is the wordplay.
'good' becomes 'g' (abbreviation).
'general' becomes 'Lee' (Robert E. Lee - US revolutionary commander).
'beat' becomes 'club' (to hit with a club).
'g'+'lee'+'club'='GLEE CLUB'
