the tigers -lrb- band -rrb-

the tigers was a four piece rock band from wellington , new zealand .
the band was formed in 1980 , and quickly developed an enviable live reputation , securing performance slots including the sweetwaters music festival while touring the north island of new zealand between 1980 and 1981 .
the single `` heart do n't stop '' was memorable for the provocative image of a naked breast full size on a gloss cover .
their next single , `` red dress '' received plenty of radio airplay , and was well recognised at live performances around new zealand .
