Piping can be jazzy! (3)
I believe the answer is:
hot
I believe this is a double definition.
'piping' is the first definition.
(I've seen this in other clues)
'be jazzy' is the second definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'can' is the link.
(Other definitions for hot that I've seen before include "Having a high temperature" , "Sultry or angry" , "Sultry in psychotic way" , "Flaming - spicy" , "Flaming - stolen" .)
