Aldo Nova, born Aldo Caporuscio in Montreal in 1956, made his entrance in 1982 with a self-titled debut on Portrait that went to number 8 on the Billboard album chart. The single that did the heavy lifting was "Fantasy", a number 23 hit on the Hot 100 that pushed the album along with it: a swaggering hard rock anthem, all revving guitars and vocal heroics, from a guy who handled both the guitar and the singing himself.
He made a second name for himself behind the scenes. Nova was a co-producer on Celine Dion's 1996 album Falling into You, which won the Grammy for Album of the Year, and four songs on La Ley's Uno, released in 2000, carry his name as a co-writer; that record picked up the Grammy for Best Latin Rock or Alternative Album.
