sadly, there is conflicting information as to the music lost in this fire.

the two lines that freak me out are:
"
was only "more obscure artists from the '40s and the early '50s." "
"
inside the video vault that was billowing thick black smoke were 1000's of original Decca, MCA, ABC recording masters from the last century including a wide range of music from Bing Crosby and the Andrew Sisters to Judy Garland and The Carpenters.'
but the information is conflicting, and its hard to tell if anything was lost, or if it was a huge chunk of music history that was lost.

I hope that all those masters were not destroyed.
