Hit record a little offensive to the Hooters? (7)
I believe the answer is:
noisome
'offensive to the hooters?' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'hit record a little' is the wordplay.
'hit record' becomes 'noi' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'a little' becomes 'some' (I've seen this in other clues).
'noi'+'some'='NOISOME'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for noisome that I've seen before include "Humming" , "Odious" , "Foul-smelling, noxious" , "Nauseating" , "Odorous" .)
