Woody Guthrie was most active and influential as a folk musician in the 1930s and 1940s, well before the 1960s. His music primarily focused on themes of social injustice and protest, which influenced many musicians in the 1960s, but he himself was not a representative of the 1960s music scene. Bob Dylan, Motown artists, the Rolling Stones, and Janis Joplin were all key figures or movements in the 1960s music scene, reflecting the various trends of folk, rock, soul, and psychedelic music of the era.
