You're somewhat idealizing the past. The reality was pop musicians were considered as marginals at the time, so they united more easily and gathered together regardless the skin colors or origins. Society as a whole was more racist but victims didn't have a voice in this pre-internet era. And ghettos weren't a joke.

True story: Wild Cherry was a rock band playong ckubs in Ohio. They were playing a club in Cleveland which had a predominantly black audience. In the mid 1970s, people of color preferred funk and disco over straight-up rock abd roll (and those styles were becoming more popular among all people). During the gig in Cleveland a member of the audience shouted to the band "play that funky music, white boy!" And it inspired the band to come up with this song. This song became an international hit and made it all the way to #1 on the billboard hot 100 in, i think 1976 or 77, if memory serves.

Wild Cherry was a hard rock cover band, but with the advent and popularity of the disco era, it began to be difficult to get bookings because audiences wanted to dance. The performers on the recording included lead singer Rob Parissi, electric guitarist Bryan Bassett, bassist Allen Wentz, and drummer Ron Beitle, with session players Chuck Berginc, Jack Brndiar (trumpets), and Joe Eckert and Rick Singer (saxes) on the horn riff that runs throughout the song's verses. The single hit No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 on September 18, 1976; it was also No. 1 on the Billboard Hot Soul Singles chart. The single was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America for shipments of over 2 million records and eventually sold 2.5 million in the United States alone. Parissi told the band that if they wanted to get bookings, they were going to have to start to include dance tunes in their sets, but the band resisted becoming a disco band. While playing at the 2001 Club on the North Side of Pittsburgh to a predominantly black audience, a patron said to band member (drummer) Beitle during a break, "Are you going to play some funky music, white boys?" Parissi grabbed a pen and order pad and wrote the song in about five minutes. The lyrics literally describe the predicament of a hard rock band adjusting to the disco era.

Our regular hangout was a club attached to a bowling alley in Rosemount MN back in the early '90's. Shout out to my City Limits crew!!! We'd all be doin' what we did. Drinkin', Shootin' pool, bowlin', and dancin'. The DJ would put this song on and everybody, I mean everybody, would stop what they were doing and start shakin' it. I'm talking people on the dance floor, bowlers, pool players, bartenders waitresses, bouncers, people in the restrooms, even people sitting at tables. And, if you weren't a regular we would help get you started. It became a regular thing at this place. Every Friday and Saturday night at the same time every time. One whole place of Dancin' Fools!!! It was a sight to see!!! I miss those days.

In the mid '70's Disco came out of Motown R&B and funk. A Disco was a dance club with a DJ who played (vinyl) LP and single hits on a turntable. The roots of Disco is in the name. A Discotheque was a retail record store with sales racks full of LP's and singles as well as isolated glass front booths with doors, all equipped with headphones for the customers including intervals along the record racks. You could request the store owner to put on your fave track or album and one or more people could listen along to the same tune if they wanted. Customers would dance while they listened and flipped through the record selections in the racks. It was a place to meet and hook up with friends or a lover and have a bop while you shop. The idea just grew out of the store into newly established recorded music and DJ clubs meant strictly for dancing as more and more people caught onto the craze.

Man, I was a kid back then and I still can't approve of what that keyboardist was wearing. I guess that's why fashions change. The young uns start hating on what everyone else is wearing.
