Record one hundred special poems (5)
I believe the answer is:
epics
'poems' is the definition.
(epic is a kind of poem)
'record one hundred special' is the wordplay.
'record' becomes 'EP' (abbreviation for extended play record).
'one' becomes 'i' (Roman numeral).
'hundred' becomes 'c' (Roman numeral).
'special' becomes 'S' (common abbreviation as in Special Air Service).
'ep'+'i'+'c'+'s'='EPICS'
(Other definitions for epics that I've seen before include "Long narrative poems telling of deeds of heroes" , "Long tales of heroic deeds" , "Spice up with adventurous poems or stories" , "Long poems about great events" .)
