So was this single actually issued in the US on Warner some years before Gord's celebrated
new 1970 contract with Warner/Reprise?
Anybody know... Valerie perhaps??

Yes, it was release in both the US and Canada. There's a mention of it in Nicholas Jennings' bio in the Songbook booklet:

"In early '65 Lightfoot was briefly signed to Warner Bros., which released one single, "I'm Not Sayin'"--about a man's evasiveness toward commitment--backed with his own version of "For Lovin' Me." Although the A-side became a minor hit in Canada, it bombed south of the border."
