I'm not a fan of this loose, clicky use of the term "backmasking" to label all reversed audio. It implies some kind of "hidden" (possibly Satanic!) content, which is usually not the case.

Zappa reversing an entire passage in "Mother People" because the lyrics had been censored, fine, let's call that backmasking.

But any of that Beatles stuff? Call it reversed audio. There's no hidden message being "masked", it's just a production technique.
