Metacomco Cambridge Lisp 68000 for the Amiga isn't all that bad-
if you know Lisp.  When I first purchased Lisp, I too thought it
was a piece of trash, but as I learned Lisp, the poor documentation,
nonexistant features, etc were less of a problem.  You can write
your own routines (like LET and DO) very easily once you have
mastered Lisp.  I have used Amiga Lisp in an AI class and Lisp class
and it performed quite well.  With 1 mbyte memory large programs are
no problem...
  
The only other Lisp for the Amiga currently is a Public Domain
Lisp, XLisp, written in C, and I think it may include source.

Hello Gold Hill? Texas Instruments?  Port to Amiga...
