It was produced by Peter Perrett and Alan Mair. The album was re-released in the UK in 2009 on Sony Music Entertainment, featuring rare bonus content. The reissue was a CD which comprises 14-tracks. It includes the original album digitally remastered from the original 1/2" mix tapes; alongside three bonus tracks. Critical reception{{Album ratings|rev1 = AllMusic |rev1Score = {{Rating|4|5}}[1] |rev2 = Record Collector |rev2score = {{Rating|4|5}}[2] |rev3 = Spin Alternative Record Guide |rev3score = 9/10[3] }} The album has consistently been praised by critics. In a retrospective review for AllMusic, critic Mark Deming wrote that "Even Serpents Shine doesn't boast an out-of-the-box classic tune along the lines of "Another Girl, Another Planet" from the self-titled debut, but in many respects, this is the more consistent album, achieving a similar degree of thematic and melodic variety while generating a more coherent sound and feeling" adding that "they were one of the very few bands of their time and place who inarguably beat the sophomore slump."[1] Reviewing the album for BBC Music, Chris Jones wrote "Musically the band were always a step ahead of the pack. Mike Kellie and Alan Mair - both seasoned pros on drums and bass - never falter, allowing John Perry's guitar to fly; while John 'Rabbit' Bundrick's organ adds just the right dollop of Al Kooper-isms."[4] Track listing{{Track listing| headline = Side one | all_writing = Peter Perrett | title1 = From Here to Eternity | length1 = 3:07 | title2 = Flaming Torch | length2 = 2:21 | title3 = You've Got to Pay | length3 = 2:49 | title4 = No Solution | length4 = 2:27 | title5 = In Betweens | length5 = 3:57 | title6 = Out There in the Night | length6 = 3:02 }}{{Track listing | headline = Side two | total_length = 35:11 | title7 = Curtains for You | length7 = 4:18 | title8 = Programme | length8 = 2:11 | title9 = Someone Who Cares | length9 = 3:11 | title10 = Miles from Nowhere | length10 = 3:45 | title11 = Instrumental | length11 = 4:03 }}{{Track listing | headline = 2009 re-mastered version bonus tracks | collapsed = yes | title12 = Special View | length12 = 2:51 | title13 = Oh No | length13 = 2:20 | title14 = This Ain't All (It's Made to Be) | length14 = 3:45 }} Personnel
