Tired out after recording? Shame (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

discredit

'shame' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'tired out after recording?' is the wordplay.
'out' indicates an anagram (out can mean wrong or inaccurate).
'after' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'recording?' becomes 'disc' (disc is a kind of recording).
'tired' with letters rearranged gives 'redit'.
'redit' put after 'disc' is 'DISCREDIT'.

(Other definitions for discredit that I've seen before include "Scandal'" , "Give the lie to" , "Smear" , "bad reputation" , "Rubbish" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
