Aphyr's Clojure from the ground up [1] series is the best place to start in my opinion.

This course on pluralsight wasn't half bad and covers a lot of a basics.

I knew how clojure felt and behaved, but IMHO you still have to memorize most of the core library, or most code will look confusing.

I find http://clojure.org/cheatsheet to be a great help in getting an overview of what's in the core library.

Yes the cheat sheet is great once you 'have a foot in the door', so to speak.

For beginners, getting familiar with namespaces in the REPL quickly is key, if you're trying to load a sample of code froma file.

Also another gotcha is multiple arity functions which I haven't seen before (in a dynamically typed language).
