Rare is the seventh studio album by British rock band Asia, released in 1999 by Resurgence. It was made up of the instrumental music, which keyboard player Geoff Downes and guitarist/vocalist John Payne composed for the soundtrack for David Attenborough's documentary nature film Salmon: Against the Tides (tracks 1–16) and for an unreleased CD-ROM video game (tracks 17–22). "The Exodus" is an adaptation of the main theme from the film Exodus (1960).
Rare was recorded at the group's new recording studios, Loco Studios, located in Monmouthshire, Wales. It broke the tradition of naming Asia studio recordings with a word beginning and ending with the letter 'a'. However, the next album, Aura (2001), would still follow this pattern.
