There have been many discussions asked before about the best party, there was a GREAT answer posted before but i dont think it exists anymore...
The red mage is decent at best during any point of the game. Firstly, he can not cast any GREAT spells, no harm for undead, AND (and this is HUGE) if you want to use him attacking, and if you want any sort of defense you MUST pay a TON of money for it....4000$ Silver sword is a LOT of ogres and a lot of time in the earth cave.
I would say a fighter, although its COMPLETELY not necessary, you could easily substitute a monk and load up your mages/thief with weapons/spells.
Monk is an absolute necessity as in later levels he DOMINATES with VERY little equipment which allows you to spend your saved money on other characters. Also he dodges a TON, and with Fog&Invs on the defense is rediculous. You can just put on weapons you use as items so you dont waste space (zeus gauntlet, Bane Sword, Thor's hammer (if no white mage)
But i would strongly suggest a black and white mage in your group...since you will need those spells for the final cave or any bosses.
And thief is FANTASTIC during certain points of the game since he usually attacks first and can run superb. Goddamn wizards wont be slaining so often if you have a thief/ninja in there, and he can use rediculous armour/weapons.
Soooo, i would say (and not many agree) but Thief-Monk-Whitemage-Blackmage
if you can get past level 10, or when you get the rat tail, its PURE domination, imagine a Ninja and blackmage Vs. Kary, then Monk, Ninja, Black Vs. Kraken, then Tiamat you can kill with the bane sword one shot...but thats just me
