Rave about account lacking inspiration on the radio (7)
I believe the answer is:
acclaim
'rave' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'account lacking inspiration on the radio' is the wordplay.
'account' becomes 'acc'.
'lacking' means to remove the last letter (the word is incomplete or lacking).
'inspiration on the radio' becomes 'claim' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'acc' with its last letter taken away is 'ac'.
'ac'+'claim'='ACCLAIM'
'about' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for acclaim that I've seen before include "Enthusiastic approval" , "Welcome with shouts of approval" , "Hail" , "commendation" , "Welcome with shouts of applause" .)
