From what I recall, "fragile" was recorded in a studio that specialized in advertising clientele.
Also, Chris Squire used a Marshall amp and cab for his bass sound as well as doubling many of his bass parts with Howe's ES335.
It's true re: the slice and dice method, the album was pieced together with a razor blade.
Pretty impressive.
The solo pieces were designed as little feature-ettes for the band members.
Fwiw, the early cd copy I have of "Close To The Edge" sounds very compressed, I hope it's better on the reissue.
