Name pre-1990s music groups which were racially integrated.
Just off the top of my head:
Benny Goodman's band was often racially integrated
Silver Convention (starting with their second album)*
Svenne & Lotta (popular in Sweden in the 1970s)
The Impalas (a late-1950s act)
Culture Club
Could you please name some others?
I hope this isn't an idiotic question.
*First album was recorded entirely by session vocalists. Second album was recorded by the group members, as was later albums. This kind of stuff was common in disco music.

But they already had pop music in the Edwardian era.in the last month I've probably posted links to over a dozen pop songs released in the 1900s

Hmm, that's a little tenuous. Sure, if you go back to Renaissance England, I doubt any music group would be of mixed race, but your reference to 'pre-1990s' was clearly a pop-based one. It's still true however that virtually any orchestra in the world was racially integrated in 1989, 1988, 1987 etc, thus your point is irrelevant.

I doubt very much the Edison Symphony Orchestra and other Edwardian orchestras were racially integrated

I posted this because I'm bored. I've been bored all year. Hence I post a lot of threads. There wasn't a "real" reason for posting it.
I don't know why I chose 1990. It was at random.

Curious: why did you want to do this exercise and why is 1990 the cutoff point?
