for me Feux de l'Amour, followed by Loi of Koffi Olomide. The Feux de l'Amour-album was not only a huge success in Congo, but also in many African countries. The generic Ndombolo had a huge buzz in Africa and the rumba-song Feux de l'Amour was also a hit in Africa, which is nowadays rare having a rumba-song which is successful in African-countries and the song Bana Lunda was a wonderful which had a big impact in Congo it gave many youngsters who were unemployed a sermon to not go to Lunda (a region in Angola) to search diamonds in hope to get rich like Didi Kinuani, Jeanpy Pipina or Tcha-Tcho Mbala. Conseil Patcho was also a wonderful, it warned many Congolese people in Europe to not forget their family in Africa and the song Cavalier Solitaire which made many controversy about J.B. and Wemba being gay.

I found it pity that monsieur Simon didn't care about recording clips and didn't added the song Courage in the album, but Feux de l'Amour will despite that still remain a classic album. I still regret that the huge succes of this album caused the split of Wenge.

It's difficult to pick out a particular album but in my opinion some the following albums had a major impact:
Mamou & Mario,Boma Ngai Na Boma Yo by Franco & TPOK Jazz
Testament Ya Bowule by Lutumba Simaro & TPOK Jazz
Sarah/Nadina ,Muzina- Tabu Ley,Mbilia Bel & Afrisa
Pon moun paka bouge - Pepe kalle
Super Sandoka - Johnny Bokelo
Kin E Bouger, Kalayi Boeing - Wenge Musica BCB 4X4
Feux de l'amour - JB Mpiana
Etat Major - Extra Musica
Une A la Une-Mwalimu , Pole Position (with the song Kaokokorobo) - Papa Wemba & Viva La Musica
Loi & Effrakatta- Koffi Olomide & Quartier Latin
Solola Bien- Wenge Musica Maison Mére

There are many more by other artists and the above mentioned that we can argue that they belong to that list but for me personally, these albums crossed borders and we saw them on international tv stations.
