Default How did they create that sound on "Mercy Mercy Me"?

On Marvin Gaye's cut "Mercy Mercy Me" there's this repetitive echoing
"ponk" that sort of sounds like a sonar ping or something. Anyone know
how that sound was created? Seems I may have heard it on other songs
as well.

do you mean the one acting as "snare" drum in the pattern?
