Here's a story from The New Yorker largely talking about a time of rioting in 1960s Detroit that mentions the rumor, as well as putting some context around the notion of the song as a radical anthem.
Just last year, Fort Smith, Arkansas, repealed their 1953 ban on public dancing on Sundays, but that applied irrespective of the music you might be playing. I don't know if Kevin Bacon had any comment on the news.

a ban in a single ban in one country is not the same as a world-wide ban.

It is when the planet is one country -- as is the case for most worlds in the Imperium (all the non-balkanized ones).
