Was wondering as I heard the Grateful Dead song Shakedown Street the other day after a long while. Was wondering if that particular track was the Dead’s attempt at producing a disco or dance song like The Rolling Stones done with Miss You?
"Street Player" by Chicago.
This is up for you to debate, but I think it's the reason why it was the band's only #1 song.Pink Floyd "Another Brick in the Wall Part 2"I am a huge Floyd fan for the record.

I believe the Bee Gees themselves contributed backing vocals on another track on that album, but forgot which one.
Electric Light Orchestra did a few, such as ""Shine a Little Love" and "Last Train to London."
I forgot the Crunge by Led Zeppelin on Houses of the Holy
Undercover of the Night by the Stones I forgot.Dancing in the Dark by Springsteen. (He even put his guitar down for that one)

The Crunge was Led Zep's feeble attempt to sound like James Brown. It was a miserable failure, with Robert Plant making the biggest fool of himself.It (and the rest of the album) was recorded in 1972. I doubt if any of the members of Led Zeppelin were exposed to disco music at that time, even if they'd wanted to be. Disco didn't start to become mainstream until 1974 or '75. In 1972, it was mostly in NYC underground clubs, with mainly gay, Black, and Latino patrons.
