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! 🙂

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.)
