Before it had been recorded or even published, Fred Astaire had sung "So Rare" on his radio show The Packard Hour. This was the recollection of Jess Oppenheimer, then a writer for the show, who recommended the song on behalf of his friend Jerry Herst, then an "aspiring songwriter". According to Oppenheimer, this led to "So Rare" being "snapped up by a publisher who heard it on the program".
Since 1937 "So Rare" has been recorded by numerous artists, but it notably became a late-career hit in 1957 for Jimmy Dorsey, reaching #2 on Billboard magazine's pop charts. Recorded on 11 November 1956 and released on the Cincinnati label Fraternity, Jimmy Dorsey's version, which had a decidedly rhythm and blues feel unlike the earlier versions, became the highest charting song by a big band during the first decade of the rock and roll era. Credited on the label to "Jimmy Dorsey with Orchestra and Chorus", the vocals are by the Artie Malvin Singers.Billboard ranked this version as the No. 5 song for 1957.
So rare, you're like the fragrance of blossoms fair Sweet as a breath of air fresh with the morning dew So rare, you're like the sparkle of old champagne Orchids in cellophane couldn't compare to you You are perfection, you're my idea Of angels singin' the "Ave Maria" Or you're an angel, I'd breathe and live you With every beat of the heart that I give you So rare, this is a heaven on earth we share Caring the way we care, ours is a love so rare You are perfection, you're my idea Of angels singin' the "Ave Maria" Or you're an angel, I'd breathe and live you With every beat of the heart that I give you So rare, this is the heaven on earth we share Caring the way we care ours is a love so rare
