Answer

"Drift Away" (also known erroneously as "Give Me The Beat, Boys") is a song written by Mentor Williams and originally recorded by John Henry Kurtz in 1972. However, Dobie Gray's cover is by far the most popular version. It became Gray's biggest hit in 1973, peaking at number five on the BillboardHot 100, though it did not enter the charts in the UK. Bob Segar, along with an overwhelming number of musicians have covered this song. Bob Segar's version was never released on any album of his own.
