When you look at this page it is very bright colours and a vibrant picture of Ozzy Osbourne is very noticeable next to a white column filled with red and black text.
The picture is very vintage but it has vibrant colours and Ozzy's skin tone is very rosy pink which shows a lot of life in this picture. This portayal of life also goes well in connection he is 'living life' and at the same time giving himself a tattoo in the image. Ozzy has very open eyes and his jaw is wide open too, it really shows experience and makes the picture feel more alive than just being a vintage shot. There is a small caption at the right of the shot which talks about Ozzy's greatest album to date, this makes you want to read on and then discuss your own opinion compared to theirs. The image really sums up Classic Rock because Ozzy is often called the 'Godfather of Heavy Metal' but many recognise him with the Rock world so it is a perfect first image to use in the magazine to keep the audience interested.
The information for the contents is actually split into 2 pages, this contents page gives the details of the more key features that you will only find in this issue. There are 6 main chunks of texts that all give detail on what is in the main magazine with the numbers in red and then the title of the paragraph in bold black. The information isn't too necessary as the bold text can be enough for someone to then read on, but it gives you that extra bit of information you might wish to know.
At the bottom there is then a special mention for the cover story. It is already discussed up the top of the page but that feels more formal than this piece at the bottom. It seems more like a headline but within the contents page so even there, the front cover has an impact upon the audience.
