When LIFE photographer Robert W. Kelley shot a few  rolls of film at an intimate jazz gig on May 14, 1958, evidently neither  he nor the magazine’s editors were jumping out of their skins with  excitement…
Why the pictures — which capture the great, groundbreaking trumpeter,  then just 31 years old, leading his band in an unnamed New York venue —  never made it into print remains a mystery to this day.

Virginia Lawmakers Drop Invasive Ultrasound Requirement From Abortion Bill

After an understandable uproar over a mandatory procedure that federal law would consider rape, Virginia legislators have opted to forgo the invasive and most definitely uncomfortable procedure for women seeking abortions. On top of a big invasion of privacy for all women, the legislation could have re-traumatized women who sought abortions because of rapes. A meeting last night led legislators to reconsider the vagina wand provision, reaching a compromise that would make the procedure voluntary, but not mandatory, reports The Washington Post. We’re not sure what woman might choose to have an ultrasound used in this way, but, now they get a choice. And with that, the never-ending reproduction debates continue.

There’s some kind of Bukowski quote that I can never find when I search for, and it isn’t the most original thought ever or anything, obvs, but something about how all the day to day bullshit (paying bills, shopping) is death of the artist. Word.

Truth.
