I never thought so. Two totally different approaches really. Steven Tyler was trying to be Mick Jagger, while Dave was, in his own words "a black man trapped in a Jewish body". A rock journalist asked Dave if he stole his scream from Ian Gillain of Deep Purple, and Roth said "HELL no, I stole that scream from James Brown and the Ohio Players"
