Isn't this is where... we came in?
This is not a backwards message but another hidden message from "The Wall". At the very end of the 2nd CD (The song "Outside The Wall"), you hear a voice saying "isn't this..." and at the very beginning of the 1st CD (The song "In The Flesh?"), you hear a voice saying "...we came in?". Put it all together and amplify it a little and this is what you'll come up with.

Amused To Death: Perfect Sense
When Roger Waters made the "Amused to Death" album, He wanted to use a clip from "2001 A Space Odyssey" that included "HAL's" shutting down voice along with the breathing effects that accompany it. When he asked permission from "Stanley Kubrick" his request was denied so Roger decided it was pay back time. He used his own breathing effects along with a backward "HAL" sounding dialogue that goes something like this:
"Julia, (long pause) however, (long pause) in the light of the recent issues, Stanley, (medium pause) we've changed our minds. (pause) We have decided to include a backward message, (long pause) Stanley, (pause) for you, (pause) and for all the other book partners".
The next bit is a loud rant in a Scottish accent. I removed most of the music and slowed the pitch down to reveal what he is screaming...
"You ain't gonna get away Stanley, it's your loss Stanley, right Stanley?"
It doesn't sound like what he said before in the normal clip but the slowed down clip reveals it!!

Ummagumma
There is a hidden message on Ummagumma. It says "That was pretty Avant Garde wasn't it?" Straight after that there is another part to the hidden message but it has been slowed down so that you can't make it out.
I speeded the second part of the clip up and you can listen to that separately. I really don't know what Roger is saying in his Scottish accent! Sounds like "I wanna quit". Let me know your suggestions on the forum.
