          I can play most of the song apart from the section in the middle, bar 17, I think I have other rhythms in my head and can’t play that one no matter how many times I’ve tried. I’ve been using your recording but I still can’t get it quite right. Any tips?

            you can go about it 3 ways;
            read the notes as written (force yourself to NOT play what’s in your head)
            play around with what you hear in your head and try to make it work rhytmically
            listen to my version and copy some of my articulations, at least you know these work and you can alter them to fit your style.

              The interesting thing is that I can sing it, but when it comes to playing it I can’t do it.

                that is interesting, if you can sing it then you could sing it but use your sax to do it. sing it the same but thru your sax if you know what I mean.

                  Got it!!! I can play the whole song through! minus the last 2 bars! Is there anything I could replace them with, I really can’t make them sound very good at all…

                    The last bar is really an outline of the final chord, which is a concert A minor 9
                    so just use these notes; 9, 5, 3, 1…not necessarily in that order, just play around with them, that’s what I did.
