Tones On Tail wasn't an earlier version of Bauhaus, it was a side-project.
Here's a good description from a TOT fan site that I found at
http://charon.gothic.net/~skot/tot/ :
"Tones On Tail were originally Daniel Ash (Bauhaus) and Glenn Campling
(roadie for Bauhaus). The group was formed in 1982 as a side project for
Daniel while he was still in Bauhaus. They were later joined by Kevin
Haskins (Bauhaus) after that band's breakup. Though the career of Tones On
Tail lasted only a couple of years (1982-1984), the group definitely made a
lasting mark with their hard-to-define deep dark blue sound. After Tones On
Tail ended, David J. (Bauhaus) rejoined with Daniel Ash and Kevin Haskins
to form Love and Rockets. Traces of Tones On Tail can be found on the last
Bauhaus record, "Burning From The Inside" (particularly on the track "Slice
of Life"), as well as the first Love and Rockets LP, "Seventh Dream of
Teenage Heaven" (particularly on the title track)."
There's a double CD called "Everything!" that, as the title suggests,
collects all of Tones On Tail's studio work, along with a bootleg-quality
live recording of "Heartbreak Hotel" and a short radio interview. I highly
recommend it.
