The legendary UK rock band members will appear minus their cigs on the album cover of one of their re-released classics.
They may have puffed cigarettes everyday during their hay-days, but fans of the legendary British rock band The Beatles will not be seeing them with their cigs on the cover of a classic album re-release, for that has been airbrushed out by health-conscious EMI record company bosses.
