Dont' know about Mayfield, but he worked in the Isley Brothers backup band, and others like this one, as he was paying his dues on the Chitlin' circuit in the early 60's before heading off to England and fame in his own right...in this version of 'Shotgun', you might hear the same rhythm vamp as Mayfield's 'Superfly' tht came along about 10 years or so later...easy to spot the lefty gp with big hair:
