"Up The Ladder to the Roof" (Download)
This song is performed by the group FOUR, featuring Anne Stone (soprano), Malathy Villar (alto), Wayne Dixon (bass), and Leokāne Pryor (tenor). Anne Stone takes the lead vocal on this track. Originally a 1970 hit single by The Supremes(post-Diana Ross), the song was later covered by The Nylons, an exciting 1980s a cappella men’s quartet that helped launch a new wave of contemporary a cappella music. The Supremes' rendition inspired the arrangement for this version. FOUR recorded this song for our first demo “tape” around 1988, using a one-inch reel before the era of digital recording. There was no pitch correction or digital fixing—this is exactly how we sang it. Anne Stone's performance was phenomenal, truly knocking it out of the park!
