Sir Jacob Jensen
He celebrated yesterday his 88 years.
Congratulations and Thank you for your creations Sir !
Congratulations to him. Without him, there would be no B&O today.
(Then some might say: "How 'bout David Lewis". Yes - but with all respect -Lewis was JJ's 'apprentice' back in the 60's. And if Jacob Jensen had not been there in the 60's and 70's B&O would probably have died along with the other 20 Danish radio/tv factories.)
Happy birthday Jacob.
I completely forgot about that, but I did actually know that his birthday was the 29th of April. Guess I forgot it while being busy preparing to celebrate myself, as yesterday was 'my' day as well.
That makes him exactly 70 years older than me.
Happy birthday and well done Jacob!

There is a tv - and there is a BV
I enjoyed having a talk with him in late 2012 when he visited a B&O themed presentation day in the Old Town (Den Gamle By, Aarhus.)
Vinyl records, cassettes, open reel, valve amplifiers and film photography.
