Not only has it never been officially confirmed, but the very existence of those two songs has never been officially acknowledged -- to the public, at least.
Personally, I just don't hear the similarity between the two. And at the time that "Shuffle Riff" was submitted to label execs, "Hit & Run" was already in circulation as some sort of demo or rough. It seems odd to rename a song "Shuffle Riff" from "Hit & Run" -- I can imagine it happening the other way, though. But that doesn't jibe with the time frame.
Is it possible that people are thinking of something called "Steve's Riff"?
