Steven Tyler's vocal range

Steven Tyler sings from D2 up to E6, a span of 50 semitones, or about 4 octaves. None of the sources we used names a voice type, so we haven't given one.

About those notes: These notes come from the 2014 Concert Hotels chart, which measured the lowest and highest notes on studio recordings and was compiled from fan-collected data. The sources don't say whether the E6 is a scream or falsetto.
