Did not need to use my elbows to reach the vinyl treasures...
Bought:
-- "That's Underground" -- CBS sampler on splatter multi-colored vinyl
with such artists as Al Kooper, The Electric Flag, Spirit etc.
-- "Off the Wall" by the late great Michael Jackson (sorry...)
-- "The Doors - Classics" (compilation of Doors songs) USA WLP,
and Zappa-wise:
-- "Overnite Sensation" - Portuguese pressing (nice glossy cover)
-- "Mothers of Invention - Live in Holland and Elsewhere" (poor
sound-quality boot) numbered (349)
-- "Pigs and Repugnance" on multicolored splatter vinyl (fun !!).
Did not buy:
-- Australian pressing of "Pregnant", didn't know it existed, because
price was 140 euros...
-- Scandinavian pressing of "Overnite Sensation" (NCB on label), didn't
know it existed because price was 37 euros...
I hope that I will not regret this later.
I had a great time !

Did they translate the song titles into Portuguese?

No, contrary to the Spanish version the (glossy) cover looks like a copy
of the normal cover. On the back-cover is under the song-list some text
like: A DISCREET recording distributed by WEA RECORDS LTD P&C 1973
"FABRICADO EM PORTUGAL"
The stereo record can be played on mono reproducers provided a
compatible or stereo cartridge wired for mono is fitted.Recent equipment
may already be fitted with a suitable cartridge. If in doubt consult
your dealer.
THIS RECORDING IS ALSO AVAILABLE ON CASSETTE AND STEREO CARTRIDGE.

How many Mothers singles were released in Japan? I have Disk Union
copies of Japanese 'Trouble' (pink writing) and Motherly Love (green
background) There are no discs inside the covers I own, which are 9cm
square; but I am grateful to be given them, and wonder if there were
playable discs made for these delightful items.
