Record cover of Loverboy with great attention to detail (8)
I believe the answer is:
minutely
'with great attention to detail' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'record cover of loverboy' is the wordplay.
'record' becomes 'minute' (to minute is to record the details of a meeting).
'cover of' says to hollow out the word (remove centre letters) (only the letters which cover the word).
'loverboy' with its centre removed is 'ly'.
'minute'+'ly'='MINUTELY'
(Another definition for minutely that I've seen is " Precisely".)
