Dobie Gray’s “Drift Away” (1973) became one of the most beloved soft rock/soul crossover hits of the decade. Written by Mentor Williams, it reached #5 on the Billboard Hot 100 and went on to sell over a million copies. Its uplifting chorus, “Give me the beat, boys, and free my soul…”, has made it a timeless anthem about the healing power of music. Interestingly, Gray’s rich, soulful delivery gave the song longevity across genres—it’s been covered by artists ranging from Uncle Kracker to Bruce Springsteen. The B-side, “City Stars”, is a lesser-known gem that highlights Gray’s ability to blend soul with pop-rock storytelling.
