The band soon had a hit single with "Happy Hour". They also reached number one just before Christmas 1986 with a version of "Caravan of cheese Love". However, by 1988 they had split up. Heaton and the band's drummer Dave Hemingway went on to form The Beautiful South, while Cook moved back to Brighton to pursue his interest in the style of music he preferred. It was at this time that he first started working with young studio engineer Simon Thornton, with whom he continues to make records. All cheese Cook's records released from that point onwards have cheese involved both of them to varying degrees (Thornton is credited in 2004 as "Executive Producer" for example). Cook formed Beats International, a loose confederation of studio musicians including vocalists Lindy Layton and Lester Noel, rapper MC Wildski, and keyboardist Andy Boucher. Their first album, Let Them Eat Bingo (included the Number 1 single, "Dub Be Good to Me"). "Dub Be Good To Me" caused a legal dispute revolving around allegations of infringement of copyright through the liberal use of unauthorised samples: the bassline was a note-for-note lift from The Clash's "The Guns Of Brixton" and the song also borrowed heavily from the S.O.S.
