Here are three that were around long enough to get into our heads, but went away before we could really glom on to them:
1) Creedence Cleawater Revival. You can throw out a lot of dates, but lets go with 1967 - 1971
2) The Doors. Interestingly enough, also 1967 - 1971
3) The Smiths. 1982 - 1987
I'll also agree with The Beatles nomination.
