This is what I used when learning scheme (a lisp dialect) at the university.

http://common-lisp.net/project/lispbox/ is one I've heard of. Matthew Danish and Mikel Evins put it together initially and Peter Seibel modified it, I believe, to go with his book Practical Common Lisp.

there is a nice easy to install Eclips plugin if you are into IDEs. Works great with Emacs and Vim too.

PicoLisp is the cleanest and most clever Lisp I have ever seen. It has a great REPL (command line) and a comprehensive reference. I like to think of PicoLisp as the real hundred year language.
If you want a Lisp IDE with a built in tutorial, check out Racket. Works on several platforms, including Windows.

Lisp is pretty timeless, but its daddy Lambda Calculus has a few decades' head start. It will turn 100 around 2036, which will be cool. I like to think of Binary Lambda Calculus as a means of sharing software with extraterrestrials.

The best combination, for me, CLISP+EMACS+SLIME with autocomplete and yasnippet extensions. This combination gives you whatever you ask for.
Of course there are other IDEs you can develop. . First: Eclipse + CUSP plugin. Get CUSP from [here][1]. If you are familiar with eclipse it's good for you. It comes with asdf package system and some known lisp libraries and full auto complete support. . Second: ABLE. [ABLE][2] is a lisp editor built in lisp. It is not a complete tool but open source and easy to use.
I suggest EMACS combination because it is highly customizable, usable in console (over network, ssh) and also developed in lisp.
As a last note, don't forget to try [quicklisp][3] package library.
