What is deceptive about Liszt is that, generally his writing is simple, (unlike Bach, Schumann, Rachmaninoff etc. ) so at slow-moderate speeds his pieces are easy to read and play.
What makes his music devilishly difficult is usually the vivace, presto and prestissimo tempo markings.
Hakki == this is MarkCannon from the Piano Forum -- Just wanted to tell you that I linked this video for the discussion entitled "Suggested Tempo for Mephisto Waltz," because I think your tempo is perfect!!
Sorry - listening to it again, perhaps the one minor thing I could suggest would be more dynamic contrast. A good start would be a great crescendo at the beginning, you know, like a dance just beginning.
Amazing fiery technique, but remember that Liszt is highly organic. Play around with the dynamics a bit, and make sure that everything sounds more natural.
not bad...a very safe performance...nice tempo...I would add in more dynamic contrasts...

Again, just minor things. Good luck!
