El Último Trago is a 2009 studio album by Spanish singer Concha Buika and Cuban pianist Chucho Valdés, produced by Javier Limón.[1]
Javier Limón describes the concept of the album as bringing together "Afro-Cuban Jazz idol" Chucho Valdés with "Afro-Flamenco Jazz" singer Buika, working on the ranchera songs originally sung by Costa Rican-Mexican Chavela Vargas.
It features a note written by director Pedro Almodóvar, who had worked repeatedly with Vargas. Almodóvar made a glowing evaluation of the album, with an emphasis on Buika's renditions.
Michael G. Nastos in his review for AllMusic stated, "It's unlikely you'll find a better pairing of an amazing singer and accompanist anywhere else, no matter the music type, but if you enjoy the classic Latin song performed with every ounce of emotion available, this recording will be impossible to resist."
