The following answer certainly works.  However it may not be obvious 
what to do when you want to use options of MultipleListPlot.  The
technique
is to construct an appropriate pure function out of MultipleListPlot,
e.g.,

d1 = Table[{x,Sin[x]},{x,0,10,.2}];
d2 = Table[{x,Cos[x]},{x,0,10,.2}];
MultipleListPlot[d1,d2,Background->RGBColor[1,.5,.5]]
