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.

Each installment of the Country Legends Live series highlights performances from particular annual awards shows. Country Legends Live, Vol. 3 offers a "best of" the 1984, 1985 and 1986 Music City News Awards Shows. Featured artists in this installment include The Statler Brothers, Larry Gatlin, Sylvia, the Oak Ridge Boys, Loretta Lynn, Janie Fricke, Lee Greenwood, The Judds, Marie Osmond & Dan Seals, Conway Twitty, Ricky Skaggs, Jim Varney and Reba McEntire.
