Has anyone checked for its inclusion on the repugnantly named 'Whitesnake' and their equally repugnantly titled 'Slide It In' album ? (A veritable milestone in gender politics to be sure)

Ain't there also some back door referencing in "Since I Been Lovin' Yoo?"

It's one of Deep Purple's best "later" songs together with the title track of that album, Perfect Strangers. It's about 7 min, I think. If you like the band you should better find out a sample of it, of course, if you're interested, just commenting.

I'm fairly certain AC/DC had some 'back door' lyrics in there somewhere, maybe on TNT?

Hey, all you people that tryin' to sleep
I'm out to make it with my midnight dream, yeah
'Cause I'm a back door man
The men don't know
But the little girls understand
All right, yeah

You men eat your dinner
Eat your pork and beans
I eat more chicken
Than any man ever seen, yeah, yeah

I'm a back door man, wha
The men don't know
But the little girl understand

Well, I'm a back door man
I'm a back door man
Whoa, baby, I'm a back door man
The men don't know

From Aerosmith's Rag Doll - You're so fine they'll never see ya leavin' by the back door, man. 
 
Although I don't believe that this would be the use that you were looking for.

Marillion have a back door lyric in a song on Brave, but I don't think it can be construed this way.
My soundcloud. Please give feedback if you want!

Purple wins because as well as "knocking on your back door", they use the phrase "cunning linguist" - in the same song!
"The disgusting stink of a too-loud electric guitar.... Now, that's my idea of a good time."

Obviously Led Zep (when did Purple use it?) "I wanna be your back door man". Nearly as subtle as "squeeze me babe till the juice runs down my leg" or the whole of "Custard Pie".

So appallingly obvious that even Dick Emery and Benny Hill shied away from it.
 
Who abused it the most? Zep or Purp?
 
 
 
 
 
 
(note: I'm only including the option 'other' out of morbid curiosity)
