The photo set off a storm of silly theories about Paul McCartney dying stemming from their clothing (gravedigger George, undertaker Ringo, etc.), and has become a tourist attraction for visitors to London. Even though their album "Let It Be" was released after "Abbey Road," the Abbey Road album was the last one they recorded as a group.
