Chris McCaa and Daryl Mims should be called something like the Seducers because their Louisiana R & B is so soft, sweet and persuasive. Journeymen musicians, they know what works with regional audiences. Think of McCaa's pseudonym of Professor Porkchop as something charming from the turn of the century.
