I'm pretty sure the Kovacs was A101 and the Bartok A102. Neither was "recorded 
in Europe" no matter what Gabor put on the labels (ditto the Balogh, since he 
was also recording for Moe Asch in the mid 40s). I didn't know about the single 
releases from those albums. Sorry I can't provide more info but all this stuff 
is packed away at the moment, and the same for my WERM.
