The GRAMMYLegendAward is a GrammyAwardawarded on special occasions, not every year.
This is a Special Merit Award, and it is presented by the Recording Academy to individuals or groups for ongoing contributions and influence in the recording field.
It has only been awarded fifteen times since it was first presented in 1990.
However, the Grammys, usually held in February (last of what are considered the "big three" music awards shows, including the BMA and AMA shows), are considered the approximate equivalent to the Oscars in the music world.
The awards are named for the trophy which the winner receives—a small gilded statuette of a gramophone, handcrafted by Billings Artworks.
Christopher Cross (GrammyAwards of 1981) is the only artist to receive the "Big Four" (Record of the Year, Album of the Year, Song of the Year, and Best New Artist) in a single ceremony.
