Paradise Bird is a studio album by Amii Stewart released in September 1979. The album yielded two European single releases, "Jealousy" (#58 UK, No. 4 Italy, No. 5 Switzerland) and double A-side "The Letter" / "Paradise Bird" (#39 UK 1980). The album was not as successful in the USA.

The original Paradise Bird album in its entirety remains officially unreleased on compact disc. However, a semi-official release was issued in Russia in 1999 on AS4000. This release paired this album with the debut release Knock on Wood and one bonus track "My Guy, My Girl", and includes all original artwork.[1]
