Master of Paradise is the ninth studio album by guitarist Tony MacAlpine, released on November 2, 1999 through Shrapnel Records. This marks the first (and so far only) time MacAlpine himself has provided vocals on any of his works, as all but two of the tracks contain singing; the final two being instrumental. Early pressings of the album suffered from a mastering error, which resulted in the overall mix being very low in volume.[3] This was corrected on later pressings, but yet another manufacturing error arose afterwards which remained uncorrected; this time involving the track listing, of which the order was printed incorrectly on the back cover, along with an image of MacAlpine mistakenly reversed to show him playing a left-handed guitar. The correct track listing is shown below.
