Road to Paradise: Anthology 1978 — 1983 is a Compilation Album by British Melodic Rock band Magnum. It was released in 1998 by Castle Communications. At the time of it's release, there had been a number of poorly produced compilations featuring Magnum's older Jet Records material. This compilation was an attempt to remedy this, featuring all of A-Sides and B-Sides released by Jet Records as well as a selection of material chosen by fans via the Internet.[1]

The album is a collection of tracks selected from Kingdom Of Madness, Magnum II, Marauder, Chase The Dragon and The Eleventh Hour as well as B-Sides and EP tracks from 1978 — 1983.
