Hi!
Well, the link I gave above is the pro level mix of this particular live performance, which is what you asked for. Personally I think the Telefunken mixes are great and are tough to beat.
You might possibly be able to make this session sound like a polished clean studio recorded track. To my mind you are likely right that this session was not recorded with quite that end goal in mind. I think you might end up chasing your tail trying to turn this into something it was not quite intended to be, if that makes sense?
Personally I think it rarely works out when people try and turn sessions into something they are not. The tracks can end up being over polished to get rid of bleed, etc, and the live performance vibe can be lost and the mix ends up sounding a bit flat or odd.
Maybe the album mix was made from the Telefunken session recordings though, or maybe it was a different studio recording? What do you think?
Link to album mix:
Will Evans - Me and My Crew, from the Signal Flares album.

I think there's llikely an official video on Youtube too.
If you are looking to practice making a commercial album style mix, I'd maybe suggest choosing a different session that was recorded with that goal in mind. There are a number of sessions here that do have commercial releases that I would think might be more suitable for what I think you are aiming at.
All that is just my opinion though. Hope it helps all the same?
Cheers!
