Road to Paradise: Anthology 1978–83

Road to Paradise: Anthology 1978–83 is a compilation album by the English rock band Magnum. It was released in 1998 by Castle Communications. At the time of its release, there had been a number of poorly produced compilations of Magnum's older Jet Records material. This compilation was an attempt to remedy this, including all of the A-sides and B-sides released by Jet Records as well as a selection of material chosen by fans via the Internet.[1]
