Early jazz (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

jive

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

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for jive that I've seen before include "Lively dance" , "Jerky, jazz dance of the 1950s" , "Deceptive talk" , "Jazzy dance" , "Jerky dance of the 1940s and 1950s" .)

I've seen this clue in the Penny Press.
