If you want to work through SICP, you can use MIT Scheme, but another option is to use Racket or DrRacket, with this add-on package: https://docs.racket-lang.org/sicp-manual/

I tried SICP straight from the book once, but I think the lectures are much better and the book acts as a supplemental reference.

Cannot recommend these enough. Watch the first one and you'll be hooked

These sound a little better than I remember. I wonder if the sound was cleaned up?
