RESEARCH LEAD 2026-07-26: YouTube upload titled/described as "Montrose Studio Rehearsals" or unreleased sessions/outtakes at the Record Plant, Sausalito: https://youtu.be/4idMMURe08I?si=dI3gzKBkWBAuXbmv. The uploader associates it with December 26, 1974, but the description mixes text about several different recordings, including the April 1973 Montrose KSAN session and an unrelated May 1974 Journey broadcast. No independent catalog, official-release documentation, collector listing, or confirmed track comparison has yet established that this audio is a separate recording event rather than an alternate or edited source of the December 26 session. Hold as an unconfirmed research lead; do not create a separate Recording row unless the audio, track list, running time, or external documentation proves it materially distinct.
