"Damn Yankees" composer (5)
I believe the answer is:
adler
'damn yankees composer' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for adler that I've seen before include "Contemporary of Freud, and German for eagle" , "Larry - - , mouth-organist" , "Alfred _; Austrian psychiatrist" , "Larry - - (mus.)" , "Austrian psychologist, 1870-1937" .)
