Which artist made the song "Drift Away" an international hit in 1973?

When they say "international hit for Dobie Gray" they really mean US and Canada. I don't think position 44 in Australia counts as a hit. It did reach the giddy heights of 15 in UK and 18 in Ireland for other artists.

Jon Snow, I don't know this song so I don't know if you drift away because the sing is melodic or because it's dull as dish water.

Luv it .So nostalgic

I drift away every time I hear the song!

TRUE CANADIAN Laurel, Gimme the beat boys and free my soul Gonna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away. Sound familiar?

that is a real old song but I still like it!!
