This day in music history.

June 15, 1966, Capital Records released the Beatles album Yesterday & Today. There is an immediate uproar over the cover which depicts the Fab Four covered in dismembered baby dolls and meat. People thought it looked like the Beatles were covered with aborted babies. The album was quickly pulled from the stores and replaced with a more conventional cover of the Beatles forcing a bondage clad girl to smell their gloves.
