The main title, “BE THERE, BE THERE NOW, BE IN IT” is effective as it is not obvious what the article is about. The bold title stands out, especially the “BE HERE NOW” line, which is in a gold colour, making it appear important to the article.

The double page spread uses entirely white, black, gold and grey. This makes it appear slightly more formal in appearance when compared to other music magazines although the image and the informal language overall give the magazine a fairly informal appearance and is therefore relevant to the target audience.

Target audience – mainly males but maybe some females, Neil Young fans, people who enjoy this genre of music, aged 35+ because Neil Young is a musician who has been popular for over forty years.

The image is of Neil Young, and is relevant to the target audience. The image is in black and white either because it was taken like that or to emphasise its age. The photo appears powerful and shows the energy of Neil Young.

The guitar in the photo on the right page overlaps very slightly onto the left page which indicates that it is a double page spread and is important to the layout of the double page spread. The pages are laid out in a single column which is different to the layout of a typical double page spread as normally, it would be laid out in 3 or more columns on both pages.
