As we can see in http://www.oac.cdlib.org/findaid/ark:/13030/kt3q2nf194/entire_text/ , I think an official recording of this concert is completely missing.
"The pianist, Times writer Daniel Cariaga noted after the 1984 performance, “commands a technique of superlative digital and sound resources; plays the piano in an old-fashioned, improvisatory, irresistible manner and makes music almost offhandedly.”" https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1994-01-17-mn-12682-story.html - The review can be found in LA Times (September 14, 1984 p.107)
Gerard Bekerman said Cziffra played Chopin Piano Sonata No.2 in this recital, but not likely. It seems that in 1980s, Cziffra played it in 1986 season only. https://papageno.hu/blogok/cziffra-fesztival/2021/11/gerard-bekerman-cziffrara-nem-lehetett-nem-odafigyelni/

" Pendant deux ans, la seule vue d'un piano m'a donné envie de vomir, dit-il. Je ne pouvais pas me décrisper; la nuit, j'agressais les passants dans la rue. Je suis tombé à terre, et, Jusqu'en 1984, je ne me suis pas relevé.
" Brusquement, j'ai accepté. J'ai compris que boire deux bouteilles de whisky par jour ne changerait rien à la mort de mon fils. Sans aide, sans médecin, sans parler à personne, j'ai cessé de boire et de manger. Je me suis imposé d'avoir faim sept jours sur sept.
" Faites attention, c'est dangereux, il n'y arrivera jamais", disait-on à ma femme.
