They didn't seem to be as concerned in those days about doing "destructive editing" as it's now called. Due to the technological limitations bouncing things around was the way albums were made so if you had to do it then you had to do it.

Sometimes I can't help but feel that the common modern outlook where a recording is a fragile piece of art which must be flawless and pristine with no errors and perfect track separation has been a huge step in the wrong direction. No take is so perfect that it can't be redone reasonably well if need be. IMHO.
