Paris by Night 88: Lam Phương - Đường Về Quê Hương (English translation: Road Back to my Country) is a Paris by Night program produced by Thuy Nga that was filmed at the Hobby Center for the Performing Arts at the Sarofilm Hall in Houston, Texas on Saturday, May 5th, 2007. It is a direct continuation of Paris by Night 22: 40 Năm Âm Nhạc Lam Phương and Paris by Night 28: Lam Phương 2 - Dòng Nhạc Nối Tiếp, that was released several years earlier. This program was codenamed, In Houston 2 (which was thought to be a successor to Paris by Night 36: In Houston, before the title was announced). Before the main subject title was announced, the program was then codenamed to In Houston 2: Lam Phương 3 (the third Lam Phương series). The three was scrapped off the title and the subject was simply, Lam Phương.

Vietnamese composer, Lam Phương, is one of the Vietnamese community's most famous composers in the Vietnamese world today; composing famous songs before and even after the Vietnam War, and the Fall of Saigon in 1975. Since the early years of Paris by Night, Thuy Nga has been making single-composer videos dedicated to just a single composer. Starting in Paris by Night 64 however, Thuy Nga introduced the three-composer format. That trend continued in Paris by Night 66, Paris by Night 70, Paris by Night 74, Paris by Night 78, and finally in Paris by Night 83. However, composer Lam Phương is an exception. After being beloved by many, and his songs are in a timeless label, Thuy Nga thought that he should deserve the entire program just dedicated to him and his songs, in a program that was meant for three composers.

Paris by Night 88 is Thuy Nga's third live-performance show, after Paris by Night 86 and Paris by Night 87, which was the PBN Talent Show. This is a trend that Thuy Nga may be beginning to adapt, after years of having singers lip-sync on stage, a practice that is common and accepted in the Vietnamese music community.

Paris by Night 88 used famous songs that was originally performed in Paris by Night 28 and Paris by Night 22, which were part of the Lam Phương series.

This is also director Alan Carter's first direction of Paris by Night, after many years of having regular director, Michael Watt direct the program. Carter has been credited to many successful programs, including the 2007 Miss America Pageant, the 2007 CMT Music Awards, and the 2005 Miss Universe Pageant.
