Hi, Folks -

From 1957, heres's Jimmy Dorsey with orchestra and chorus, and "So Rare", written in 1937 by Jerry Herst and Jack Sharpe.

Wikipedia says:

Since 1937 "So Rare" has been recorded by numerous artists,[8][9][10][11] but it notably became a late-career hit in 1957 for Jimmy Dorsey, reaching #2 on Billboard magazine's pop charts.[12] 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",[13] the vocals are by the Artie Malvin Singers.[14] Billboard ranked this version as the No. 5 song for 1957.[15]
