From Hell to Paradise is the second album by the American country music band the Mavericks. It was released in May 1992 on MCA Nashville Records. The only album to feature David Lee Holt on lead guitar comprises ten songs, including re-recordings of four from their first album, The Mavericks (1990): "Mr. Jones", "The End of the Line (Jim Baker)", "This Broken Heart" and "A Better Way".
Two cover songs appear on the album: "Excuse Me (I Think I've Got a Heartache)" and "Hey Good Lookin'", which were previously recorded by Buck Owens and Hank Williams, respectively. The latter cover was one of two singles released, and it peaked at #74 on the Billboard country charts in 1992. The other, "I Got You" b/w "A Better Way", failed to chart.
Critical reception
The Austin American-Statesman wrote that Raul Malo "sings like the reincarnation of Del Shannon, and the Texas twang of guitarist David Holt ... helps offset the production's tendency toward slickness."
