Records go into wall hanging (8)
I believe the answer is:
tapestry
'wall hanging' is the definition.
(I know that tapestry is a type of wall hanging)
'records go' is the wordplay.
'records' becomes 'tapes' (taping is a kind of recording).
'go' becomes 'try' (both can mean an attempt).
'tapes'+'try'='TAPESTRY'
'into' is the link.
(Other definitions for tapestry that I've seen before include "Piece of strong material with picture or design woven into it" , "Ornamental textile" , "Embroidered picture" , "As pretty as embroidered material" , "needlepoint" .)
