Jack Sharpe and "So Rare"

[edit]

I've deleted the sentence crediting this Jack Sharpe, born 1930, with the lyrics to "So Rare", first recorded 1937 with credits to Sharpe and Herst. Either the birth year for Sharpe is wrong (unlikely given his career dates) or two Jack Sharpes have been confused. The fact that this Jack Sharpe was born and flourished in Britain is circumstantial evidence for the latter. More research needed.Lyn50 (talk) 12:40, 18 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Updated, citing reference in Billboard confirming this is not the writer of "So Rare" Lyn50 (talk) 11:59, 19 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
