Always and absolutely. With bass I don't only mean the bassline. I mean all low frequencies - the bassline, the low end of your drums, percussion, any bassy effects, etc. No panning, no stereo effects. Make it mono. With stereo bass content the needle has to do big vertical movements which easily results in skips. Also the record will have to be cut quieter."
