Lisitsa Don Juan and Carmen Fantasy
Horowitz Islamey, Schumann Fantasy (I think it was him I'm thinking of)
Hamelin Paganini Etude 6 (Personal thing, I just don't like how he plays it)
Ogdon Gnomenreigen - Sounds awesome but is so fast I think Liszt might have shot him
Howard - Lots of his harder Liszt pieces are ugh....
Lang (?) Ocean Etude (And lots more) - Don't even get me started. That poor, poor piano. He probably ruined it.
