New View

New View

''New View,'' the third solo album by Eleanor Friedberger, was rehearsed in the Los Angeles neighborhood of Echo Park and recorded in upstate New York. The songs on ''New View'' were recorded live to tape with simple instrumentation: drums, bass, Wurlitzer and 12-string acoustic guitar on almost every track, courtesy of the band Icewater with Dorian DeAngelo contributing a handful of well-placed guitar solos. Producer Clemens Knieper gives the album a classic sound, like something that's existed forever on a record collector's shelf, wedged in with Dylan's ''New Morning'' and John Cale's ''Vintage Violence.'' Songs like ''Open Season'' recall The Fiery Furnances at their most magisterial. The wry, plainspoken ''Because I Asked You'' builds on the style Friedberger first polished on her solo debut ''Last Summer.'' And then there's ''A Long Walk,'' the sun-striped finale that lends a memorable afterglow to ''New View.'' It's a sweet, aching goodbye from an album that seems full of them.
