Live in Paradise is the second live album from New Zealand female vocal group When the Cat's Away with Sharon O'Neill.

Background and release

After the group's split in 1990, they decided to reform in 2001, minus original member Dianne Swan. The group contacted fellow New Zealand singer Sharon O'Neill and released a cover version of her 1980 single "Asian Paradise", which peaked at number 16, surpassing O'Neill's solo peak position. A tour commenced in September 2001 and an album was recorded and released as Live in Paradise in November 2001.
