The title alludes
to the slogan
"The family that prays
together stays together",
created by
ad-writer
Al Scalpone
for the
Family Rosary Crusade
and popular
in American
and
British parlance
beginning in the 1940s.
During this time
the band lived
together in a house
in
Topanga, California,
near
Los Angeles.
The title was
also inspired by
the stepson-stepfather
relationship
between
lead guitarist
and
percussionist
Ed Cassidy.
