Roc Mitchell’s Dimensia (Alphabet Innovations, 1970), slanted and with a modified s that closes the gap caused by the r, for a live album with folk and gospel music from 1971.

From Jack Ahern’s liner notes:

CURSILLO ’71 is a “live performance” recording of Cursillistas gathered together in the gymnasium of St. Benedict Center in San Francisco, the evening of May 29, 1971, singing the songs that reflect the community of love which pervades a Cursillo weekend. The Cursillo Movement began in Majorca, in 1949, when Roman Catholic Bishop Huervas held the first Cursillo de Christiandad—a short course in Christian living. The Cursillo spread quickly through Europe; and in 1957, through the initiative of two Spanish Air Cadets stationed in Texas, the Cursillo came to the United States where more than 250,000 people have experienced a Cursillo weekend.
