Music City News was founded in 1963, by country music singer Faron Young. In 1967, the publication began to confer annual awards; in 1978, it began televising them, with the inclusion of artist performances. These awards were not decided by a secretive committee or by an "association," but by fan nominations. Each installment of the Country Legends Live series highlights performances from particular annual awards shows. Country Legends Live, Vol. 2 offers a "best of" the 1981, 1982 and 1983 Music City News Awards Shows. Featured artists in this installment include Lester "Roadhog" Moran & the Cadillac Cowboys, Roy Clark, Tammy Wynette, Alabama, the Oak Ridge Boys, Terri Gibbs, Marty Robbins, Barbara Mandrell, Conway Twitty, The Statler Brothers, T.G. Sheppard, Boxcar Willie, Janie Fricke, Ricky Skaggs and Lee Greenwoood.
