Question Baby, Don't you want to Go? - Radio One Club broadcast 10 / 68

I'm hoping that maybe someone here might be able to help answer a question here concerning the track "Baby, Don't You Want to Go" from the October 9th BBC broadcast on the Radio One Club -
I have never come across that track in trading and I wonder if the title is correct -
In the sessionography in the back of Celmins' biography of Peter Green he lists the song as having been released on a bootleg under the Koine label (catalog # K890104)
Than sessionography also lists ten other songs, all from BBC broadcasts, under the same catalog number - the other ten are all readily available - some on "official" releases, others are still only bootlegged, but not this one.
Does anyone have this bootleg (maybe on vinyl?) Has anyone ever heard the song?
Christopher Hjort writes that Jeremy Spencer takes the lead vocal. Is that correct?
Is the song Tommy McClennan's knock-off of Robert Johnson's "Sweet Home Chicago"? Or was the cover based on Dan Pickett's version?
Was it different song altogether and simply mis-titled?
Less than four weeks later, on November 1st, they would perform the Johnson song on Alexis Korner's Rhythm & Blues show with Green on harmonica and backing vocals, and Spencer on piano and vocal - did they use a similar arrangement for "Baby, Don't You Want to Go?"
If anyone actually has the track, or any information regarding it, I would be very interested in hearing from them -

Yeah, it sounds like it was "Sweet Home Chicago" but only mislabled. I betcha it's the one that appears on Live At The BBC, which aired a few weeks later.
