In Performance 1970–1974 is a four CD box-set of live Mott the Hoople concerts between 1970 and 1974. Playing were the original members of the band and also, the new members incorporated in 1973 after Verden Allen's May departure, and Mick Ralph's August departure.

The sessions to convert and remaster the original tapes were supervised by drummer Dale Griffin. The result was this box-set published by Angel Air Records in 2008.

These sets of live recordings show the original band, as well as the later Bender/Fisher line-up. It captures the best of those releases and puts them together in chronological order, allowing the listener to follow the group's journey from the "Liverpool Docks to the Hollywood Bowl".
