The single Hey Jude was almost refused release as music industry big-wigs were convinced that the record label was pornographic (looked like a fadge).
Oh those heady permissive days of the sixties!

I've got a pretty filthy mind and never really progressed beyond schoolboy humour but I had never noticed any similarity.
TBH, as a typographic designer I am more offended by the dreadful typography on the label shown.

Despite the company name, the apple isn't Paul McCartney's favourite fruit apparently.
It's a ba-NA-NA-NA-NA-NA-NA-NA-NA-NA-NA......

I disagree on that.
I think I posted here that it's actually perfect. It's hard to describe but it goes on too long and then a bit further - it's that extra bit further that means it gets trance-like which is perfect and, I think, what they were aiming at.
