Participle or not

Hello everybody Emotion: smile I have a question that I've been pondering over.

It sounded even better coming from him.

Could you tell me if the underlined part is a participle clause. I think it is because it talks about 2 things happening at the same time - As it came from him, it sounded even better. I'm anxious to hear your take on this matter Emotion: smile

And on more thing - can we use keep with absolutely every past participle ?
