Under American Skies (2001)

"Tom Paxton and Anne Hills are the type of political songwriters that the Old Left would have been proud of. When most singer-songwriters plugged in and started gazing at their navels, Paxton and Hills remained true to causes great and small. Well- known and respected, they choose to put these causes - the death penalty, environmentalism, and poverty - forward, and not themselves. The heart and soul of Under American Skies lies in songs that passionately take up the causes of the dispossessed. (...) Paxton and Hills add a number of tuneful, romantic songs that lighten the heavy load. Their voices work well together and the simple arrangements perfectly underline the material". (Ronnie D. Lankford, Jr., www.acousticmusic.com).
