I didn't say play it in 3, I said play the front end with a JAZZ waltz feel, so
one measure is counted: 1,2 a,3,4,5 or
1,2 a,3,1,2

No matter what you call it, if you're counting "1 2 a 3 4 5", you're in 6/4, not 5/4.

I think you're mistaking the "a" as a beat - it's actually an UPbeat and doesn't get a count. I misunderstood the original post to read that it was felt as a waltz too.
Essentially, we're saying the same thing regardless of "Swing feel" it's most often divided as 3+2.

Thanks
