Profile new hit albums played on sailing vessel (9,6)
I believe the answer is:
thumbnail sketch
'profile' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't judge whether this works.
'new hit albums played on sailing vessel' is the wordplay.
'new' becomes 'n' (common abbreviation eg NT for New Testament).
'played' indicates an anagram.
'on' says to put letters next to each other.
'sailing vessel' becomes 'ketch' (ketch is a kind of sailing vessel).
'n'+'hit'+'albums'='nhitalbums'
'nhitalbums' anagrammed gives 'thumbnails'.
'thumbnails'+'ketch'='THUMBNAIL SKETCH'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for thumbnail sketch that I've seen before include "little canvas?" , "A little artistic" , "Basic drawing" .)
