Guitarist celebrity Times article recalled (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

axeman

'guitarist' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'celebrity times article recalled' is the wordplay.
'celebrity' becomes 'name' (I've seen this before).
'times' becomes 'x' (multiplication sign).
'article' becomes 'a' (indefinite article).
'recalled' says the letters should be written in reverse.
'name'+'x'+'a'='namexa'
'namexa' backwards is 'AXEMAN'.

(Other definitions for axeman that I've seen before include "Tree-cutter" , "One wielding chopper" , "Tree feller - executioner" , "Guitarist (slang)" , "Killer" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
