Ellington contemporary (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

'ellington contemporary' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

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

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.
