Second recommendation for Landau-Lifshitz.

The Mechanics book most closely matched the experience I had with SICP. It uses a small number of powerful, primitive concepts to construct all the major results of mechanics. The book is extremely dense, but the writing is so elegant and lucid that it does not feel forbidding. The only prerequisite is comfort with calculus, though prior knowledge of physics will help, and make the book's achievement that much more impressive.
