The Cage is a 1983 album by NWOBHM band Tygers of Pan Tang, released on MCA. It is considered the finest album of the band, selling over 200,000 copies and giving birth to two top 50 songs in Britain, namely the covers of Leiber & Stoller's "Love Potion No 9" and the lesser known RPM song "Rendezvous". It is shortly after producing this album that the band split for the first time, due to tensions with their record company. Robb Weir and Brian Dick then formed the band Sergeant.
