I liked Practical Common Lisp. Also Paul Graham's "On Lisp" (Chapter 4 is a good example of the flavor of it).

Both of these are still perfectly serviceable texts for common lisp purely in terms of "can I run this code from 20+ years ago unchanged on sbcl I just installed via a package manager?". Practical Common Lisp is simply a phenomenal textbook in terms of pedagogy.
