...Southern California's history -had sent up in Argenta-mink smoke 447 homes (bottom price: $50,000), left behind more than $24 million in insurance claims, and the flossiest refugees since the Russian Revolution. Among the homeless were Actor Cliff Robertson, Joan Fontaine, Comedian Arnold Stang, Bandleader Orrin Tucker.

The piano selections by Rachmaninoff (Liszt's Second Hungarian Rhapsody, recorded in 1919) and Moriz Rosenthal (various Chopin Preludes, recorded in 1929) are less successful, chiefly because the early acoustical method of recording tended to blur the percussive piano sound. But Rachmaninoff's glittering technique is there, and so is a remarkable and ornate cadenza that is preserved...
