Count in jazz (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

basie

'count in jazz' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for basie that I've seen before include "Bandleader Count" , "jazz great" , "Band leader" , "Jazz musician" , "Count ___ , US jazz pianist, d. 1984" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times and The New York Times.
