To celebrate this positive period in his career, Rossi released his first live recording in 1984, "Va bene, va bene così" ("It's alright, it's alright this way"). In April, however, he was arrested on charges of drug possession. He was immediately granted provisional release from jail, but subsequently sentenced to 2 years and eight months of probation. Shortly thereafter he released his next album, "Cosa succede in città" ("What's going on in the city"), which became one of his weakest critically and did not reach past sales.
