Wilson, Cassandra – Blue Light Til Dawn (Jazz & Blues, 1993)

This one is a treasure. In the early 90s, smoky-voiced jazz singer Cassandra Wilson signed with Blue Note and released this stunning, spare, elegant album of mostly reinterpretations of blues & folk rock songs, including a sensitive and lovely resuscitation of Van Morrison's badly overplayed "Tupelo Honey", Joni Mitchell's "Black Crow", and, spectacularly, dark-as-midnight and entirely effective jazz nocturne renditions of two Robert Johnson songs—one of them being "Hellhound On My Trail", a song formerly claimed by Eric Clapton to be "uncoverable". She makes them all her own.

That's all I can say about this one. You just have to listen.
