Being able to run on the JVM is not a differentiating factor among lisps. Kawa Scheme and ABCL give you access to Java Libraries. If you ask me the strengths of Clojure that it is built upon abstraction/interfaces (ie. conj instead of cons) and how it manages hygiene while retaining quasiquotes templates leveraging clj's namespaces. But then again you should probably ask a clojurian instead.
