Get the Victor Reinz Tuff-Cork gasket, W39365TC for the 4L60E. It has a steel core.

Make sure the top gear solenoid purge port located in the pan rail isn't covered by the gasket. Some aftermarket aluminum pans will also cover this port and need to be ground.

Yeah, grease is an old trick to get it to stay put during installation-and make it easier to remove the next time.
It doesn't work so well on these transmissions as the OP has found out.
I knew a "mechanic" who used floor tile adhesive on transmission pan and differential cover gaskets. They never leaked but you'd need a freekin jackhammer to get them off.
Go with the Tuff-Cork stuff guys.
