Oh hell yeah! It may have been considered pop/rock but it was definately funky.

Back in these days (late 70s),I used to listen to AM pop stations.I grew up on songs like this! This was a time when pop radio actually played GOOD songs.

Same here. Back then, I didn't even know what an R&B station was....until disco died and I started searching for similar music.

it's funny though....on the AM station I listened to,they also played R&B and disco too.An Elton John song would be followed by a Stevie Wonder song.Things were so much different back then.

That's because disco was loved by all races. Racism was one of the reasons for the backlash that followed.
