It also saw a major rise in protest songs and the folk genre. Pioneers in the US were Bob Dylan, the Mamas & the Papas, and Joan Baez; in England, the Animals and Donovan helped create the folk rock sound.
Motown Records became one of the biggest labels in music history with artists such as Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, Diana Ross & The Supremes, The Four Tops, The Temptations, The Jackson Five, Michael Jackson, Smokey Robinson, and many others.
