Ezra Cohen: “Catchin’ Up”

Rocking the apostrophe in place of the dropped-’g’ always feels like a dicey proposition. Is it too affected? Sure, we drop some of our ‘g’s in everyday speech, but what’s the proper grammatical convention when it comes to writing? Musicians always get a pass when it comes to these things. Check out some of Miles Davis’ albums:

Walkin' (1957)

Cookin' (1957)

Relaxin' (1958)

Workin' (1959)

Steamin' (1961)

The master jazz trumpeter was crankin’ out the tunes. Who has time for the letter ‘g’? If it’s good enough for Miles Davis, it’s good enough for Ezra Cohen.
