"Dub Be Good To Me" is a popular single by Beats International.
Written by Norman Cook, Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, "Dub Be Good To Me" was the sole number one single for Cook's genre hopping outfit Beats International.
A mix of two songs, The Clash's "Guns of Brixton" and The SOS Band's "Just Be Good To Me", the song also had a sample of the distinctive "harmonica" theme from the epic western film Once Upon a Time in the West, written by Ennio Morricone. It was a massive hit spending 4 weeks at number one on the UK singles chart in February 1990. The song reached #1 on the Billboard Dance Chart and #76 on the Billboard Hot 100.
